Abstract : The heat transfer between two corresponding plates, disks, and concentric pipes has many applications, including water cleansing and lubrication. Furthermore, TiO2-water-based nanofluids are used widely because it is useful for operating and controlling the temperature, especially in photovoltaic technology and solar panels. Motivated by these applications, the current study is based on the nanoparticle aggregation effect on magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow via rotating parallel plates with the chemical reaction. To achieve maximum heat transportation, the Bruggeman model is used to adapt the Maxwell model. Also, melting and thermal radiation effects are considered in the modeling to discuss heat transport. The Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg 4th5th order method is used to attain numerical solutions. The main focus of this study is to see the thermodynamic behavior considering several aspects of nanoparticle aggregation. The heat transfer rate between the parallel plates is enhanced by improving the thermophoresis, radiation, and Brownian motion parameters. The rise in Schmidt number and chemical reaction rate parameter decreases the concentration distribution. This study will be helpful in enhancing the thermal efficiency of photovoltaic technology in solar plates, water purifying, thermal management of electronic devices, designing effective cooling systems, and other sustainable technologies.
