Abstract
The aim of the current study is to disclose the results of shape factor analysis of the flow of a hybrid nanofluid over a curved sheet. The flow is caused by a stretchable curved sheet. Mathematical modeling and analyses have been performed in the presence of curvature, melting heat and heterogeneous-homogeneous reactions. Autocatalysis and the coefficients of the reactant are dealt with in a similar manner. The physical properties of the fluid, including the fluid velocity, the heat and mass transfer properties, the skin friction and the Nusselt number have been acquired and analyzed under the influences of the dimensionless curvature, melting and heterogeneous–homogeneous reaction variables. Boundary layer approximations are used in the mathematical formulation. Suitable transformations have been used to transform differential equations into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The resulting nonlinear system of equations has been analyzed via the matlab bvp4c solver. Comparisons of nanoliquids with the hybrid nanoliquid are presented through graphs and tables. The results of this analysis show that the skin friction and the heat transfer rate in the hybrid nanofluid are seen more prominently than those of the nanofluid for larger values of the curvature parameter [Formula: see text].
Highlights
Boundary layer flow of viscous fluids has seen extensive use in industry because of the widespread use of stretching moveable surfaces with peculiar velocities
We examine how the temperature depends on the melting heat transfer
The solid lines in the figures represent the values for the nanofluid ((MoS2)=water) and the dashed lines represent the values for the Hybrid nanofluids (HBNFs) (MoS2 + graphene oxide (GO)=water)
