Entropy analysis of radiative [MgZn6Zr-Cu/EO] Casson hybrid nanoliquid with variant thermal conductivity along a stretching surface: Implementing Keller box method

Abstract

Heat transfer is critical due to its broad application in a variety of industries. New hybrid nanofluids are being used to improve the heat transfer competencies of ordinary fluids and have an enormous exponent heat than nanofluids. Hybrid nanofluids, a novel form of nanofluid, are being utilized to improve the heat transfer capacities of regular fluids and have a more outstanding heat exponent than nanofluids. Two-element nanoparticles submerged in a base fluid make up the hybrid nanofluids. Flow and heat transport properties of a hybrid nanofluid across a slick surface are studied in this study. Nanoparticle shape analysis, porous media, thermal conductance variations, and thermal radiative effects are all part of the process. A numerical approach called the Keller box method is used to solve the governing equations numerically. EO-Engine Oil has been used as a rich, viscous base fluid in this study, and a Cason hybrid nanofluid was examined. This fluid contains two diverse forms of nanoparticles: Copper (Cu) and Magnesium Zinc Zirconium alloy (MgZn6Zr). Compared to standard Cu-EO nanofluids, the heat transmission level of such a fluid (MgZn6Zr-Cu/EO) has steadily increased, which is an important finding from this study. The boundary-lamina-shaped layer's components have the highest thermal conductivity, while sphere-shaped nanoparticles have the lowest. When nanoparticles are assimilated, the entropy of the system increases by a factor of three: their ratio by fractional size, their radiative properties, and their thermal conductivity variations.
