Sažetak

This paper discusses the magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer in a horizontal channel whose top and bottom halves have different or the same permeability. The top half of the channel is saturated with oil and the bottom half with a water-based nanofluid. The channel is under the influence of an external homogeneous vertical magnetic field and an external homogeneous electric field perpendicular to the vertical longitudinal plane of the channel. The Darcy model is used to determine the fluid flow and heat transfer. Expressions for velocity and temperature distributions are defined and presented graphically for different values of the dimensionless parameters. The Nusselt numbers are determined and given in a table. The paper also investigates the influence of the Hartmann number, the porosity factor, the electrical load factor and the volume fraction of the nanofluid on velocity and temperature distributions in the channel as well as the Nusselt numbers. It has been shown that an increase in the volume fraction of nanoparticles leads to a decrease in the temperature in the channel. Increasing the porosity factor reduces the fluid velocity in the channel and increases the temperature. The Hartmann number increases the temperature in the channel. Higher absolute values of the load factor correspond to higher temperatures. By changing the value of this factor, the direction of fluid flow can also be changed.
