Abstract
ABSTRACT In recent years, nanotechnological research has introduced hybrid nanofluids, which are advanced fluids with augmented thermal properties that give better results than regular nanofluids. The thermal transfer characteristics of the Falkner-Skan flow of MgO-MoS2/Engine oil hybrid nanofluid induced by a wedge surface with thermophoresis and Brownian motion are numerically investigated. The main objective of this research is to examine the augmented thermal transport behavior of Casson and Carreau hybrid nanofluids. The equations that arise are solved by adopting the bvp5c scheme in MATLAB software. Plots and numerical values illustrate the stimulus of various pertinent parameters on the flow-determining factors such as velocity, thermal and concentration fields, wall friction, energy, and mass transports. The rate of energy transport in the Carreau hybrid nanofluid is significantly larger than that of the Casson hybrid nanofluid. The implication of 5% volume of MgO-MoS2 nanoparticles enhances the rate of thermal transport by 53% in the Carreau fluid and 47% in the Casson fluid, respectively. This research holds potential for applications in geothermal energy systems.
