Numerical investigation of magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer of copper–water nanofluid in a channel with non-parallel walls considering different shapes of nanoparticles

This article presents the magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer of water-based nanofluid in divergent and convergent channels. Equations governing the flow are transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations by employing suitable similarity transforms. Resulting system is solved using a...
