Abstract

The assumptions that form our focus in this study are water or water-ethylene glycol flowing around a horizontal cylinder, containing hybrid nanoparticles, affected by a magnetic force, and under a constant wall temperature, in addition to considering free convection. The Tiwari–Das model is employed to highlight the influence of the nanoparticles volume fraction on the flow characteristics. A numerical approximate technique called the Keller box method is implemented to obtain a solution to the physical model. The effects of some critical parameters related to heat transmission are also graphically examined and analyzed. The increase in the nanoparticle volume fraction increases the heat transfer rate and liquid velocity; the strength of the magnetic field has an adverse effect on liquid velocity, heat transfer, and skin friction. We find that cobalt nanoparticles provide more efficient support for the heat transfer rate of aluminum oxide than aluminum nanoparticles.
