Thermal Radiation Effects on Entropy Generation in Porous Media with Casson Fluid via FEM Insights
Author(s): Shaiza Talib, Bai Mbye Cham*, Dawda Charreh and Bakary L. Marong
This paper offers a detailed examination of entropy generation within a porous medium that is saturated with Casson fluid during the process of natural convection. The governing equations comprising momentum, energy, and entropy are solved numerically using the finite element method. The research explores various significant parameters, including the Casson fluid parameter, thermal radiation, Rayleigh number, and Prandtl number, to evaluate their effects on entropy generation. Findings indicate that the Darcy and Rayleigh numbers primarily dictate the strength of natural convection, while the Casson fluid parameter has a considerable impact on both flow dynamics and heat transfer characteristics. This analysis delivers essential insights for optimizing flow and thermal behaviors in systems utilizing Casson fluids. Furthermore, the Prandtl number highlights the significance of heat tra..
