Heat transfer enhancement of hybrid nanofluids over porous cone

Abstract

Abstract The nanofluid is most advantageous to enhance the heat efficiency of base fluid by submerging solid nanoparticles in it. The metals, oxides, and carbides are helpful to improve the heat transfer rate. In the present analysis, the role of the slip phenomenon in the radiative flow of hybrid nanoliquid containing SiO2 silicon dioxide and CNTs over in the porous cone is scrutinized. The behavior of the magnetic field, thermal conductivity, and thermal radiation are examined. Here the base fluid ethylene glycol water (C2H6O2−H2O) is used. Accepting similarity transformation converts the controlling partial differential equations (PDEs) into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The numerical solution is obtained by utilizing the Lobatto-IIIa method. The significant physical flow parameters are discussed by utilizing tables and graphs. Final remarks are demonstrating the velocity profile is declined via higher magnetic parameter while boosted up for nanoparticles volume fraction. Furthermore, the thermal profile is enriching via thermal conductivity parameter, radiation parameter, and nanoparticles volume fraction.
