Abstract

In this work, a novel enhanced model of the thermophysical characteristics of hybrid nanofluid is introduced. An innovative kind of fluid called hybrid nanofluid has been engineered to increase the heat transfer rate of heat and performance of thermal system. A growing trend in scientific and industrial applications pushed researchers to establish mathematical models for non-Newtonian fluids. A parametric study on theheat transfer and fluid flow of a Williamson hybrid nanofluid based on AA7075-AA7072/Methanol overincessantly moving thin needle under the porosity, Lorentz force, and non-uniform heat rise/fallis performed. Due to similarity variables, the partial differential equations governing the studied configuration undergo appropriate transformation to be converted into ordinary differential equations. The rigorous built-in numerical solver in bvp4c MATLAB has been employed to determine the numerical solutions of the established non-linear ordinary differential equations. It is worthy to note that velocity declines for both AA7075/Methanol nanofluid and AA7075- AA7072/Methanol hybrid nanofluid, but highervelocitymagnitudes occur for theAA7075/Methanol whilethe Williamson fluid parameters increased. It is alsoconcluded that as the porosity parameter isincreased, the flow intensity decreases gradually. It is worthy to note that for both non-uniform heat-rise and fall parameters, the temperature of the fluid gets stronger. Mounting valuesof needle thickness parameter leads to reduction in fluid speed and temperature. It is noticedthat as volume fractions of both types of nanoparticles are augmented then fluidvelocity and temperature amplify rapidly. A Comparison of current and published results is performed to ensure the validity of the established numerical model.
