MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048824 A) filed by Koneru Lakshmaiah Education Foundation, Hyderabad, Telangana, on April 16, for 'a method and system for magnetohydrodynamic mixed convective flow analysis of maxwell nanofluid with activation energy and diffusive heating over a porous stretching sheet.'
Inventor(s) include Pudari Chandra Mohan; Y. Suresh Kumar; and Anjanna Matta.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a method and system for analyzing magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convective flow behavior of Maxwell nanofluid over a porous stretching sheet incorporating activation energy and diffusive heating effects. The invention employs a mathematical modeling framework where governing partial differential equations representing momentum, energy, and concentration are transformed into ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. The system utilizes numerical techniques, including the Runge-Kutta fourth-order method combined with the shooting technique, to obtain accurate solutions. The model evaluates the influence of critical parameters such as magnetic field strength, porosity, activation energy, and diffusion-thermo effects on velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles. The invention further determines key engineering parameters including skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number. This method provides improved predictive capability for heat and mass transfer processes in industrial applications such as cooling systems, energy devices, and advanced fluid engineering systems."
