Convective flow of nanofluid inside a lid driven porous cavity using CVFEM

In this research, nanofluid magnetohydrodynamic forced convection through a permeable enclosure with moving wall is demonstrated. Brownian motion influence on nanofluid treatment is considered. CVFEM is employed to model this problem. Graphs are shown for different nanofluid volume fraction ( ϕ ) , Reynolds number ( Re ) , Hartmann number ( H a ) and Darcy number ( D a ) . Results demonstrate that convective heat transfer improves with augment of Darcy and Reynolds numbers while it decreases with enhance of Ha.
