Abstract EN
The present work is devoted to the numerical study of laminar magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) conjugate natural convection flow from a horizontal circular cylinder taking into account Joule heating and internal heat generation.
The governing equations and the associated boundary conditions for this analysis are made nondimensional forms using a set of dimensionless variables.
Thus, the nondimensional governing equations are solved numerically using finite difference method with Keller box scheme.
Numerical outcomes are found for different values of the magnetic parameter, conjugate conduction parameter, Prandtl number, Joule heating parameter, and heat generation parameter for the velocity and the temperature within the boundary layer as well as the skin friction coefficients and the rate of heat transfer along the surface.
It is found that the skin friction increases, and heat transfer rate decreases for escalating value of Joule heating parameter and heat generation parameter.
Results are presented graphically with detailed discussion.
