Abstract

The recent applications in industrial products and engineering need high thermal efficiency for the betterment of the shape of the products, the concept of hybrid nanofluid is significant in comparison to nanofluid and pure fluid. Therefore, this analysis focuses on the flow of a micropolar hybrid nanofluid over a vertical permeable plate. The study considers free convection of an electrically conducting fluid, incorporating metal and oxide components with a water-based hybrid nanofluid. Further, the conjunction of dissipative and radiating heat with generative/absorptive heat enhances the thermal properties. The use of standard transformation rules gives rise to converting the nondimensional form of concerned PDEs to ODEs. Moreover to get rid of the solution, for the nondimensional set of equations, a shooting-based numerical technique like Runge–Kutta (RK)-fourth-order is adopted for the standard values of several components within their range. The effectiveness of these parameters is studied and displayed through graphs. The computed result of the rate coefficients at the surface is depicted in tabular form. The comparative analysis with earlier work studied by considering the base liquid shows a good correlation in particular cases. However, the important outcomes are, the magnetized nano as well as hybrid nanoparticles produces a thicker momentum boundary layer thickness whereas it enhances the fluid temperature.
