Impact of Navier’s Slip and MHD on a Hybrid Nanofluid Flow over a Porous Stretching/Shrinking Sheet with Heat Transfer

Abstract

The main objective of this study is to explore the inventive conception of the magnetohydrodynamic flow of a hybrid nanofluid over-porous stretching/shrinking sheet with the effect of radiation and mass suction/injection. The hybrid nanofluid advances both the manufactured nanofluid of the current region and the base fluid. For the current investigation, hybrid nanofluids comprising two different kinds of nanoparticles, aluminium oxide and ferrofluid, contained in water as a base fluid, are considered. A collection of highly nonlinear partial differential equations is used to model the whole physical problem. These equations are then transformed into highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations using an appropriate similarity technique. The transformed differential equations are nonlinear, and thus it is difficult to analytically solve considering temperature increases. Then, the outcome is described in incomplete gamma function form. The considered physical parameters namely, magnetic field, Inverse Darcy number, velocity slip, suction/injection, temperature jump effects on velocity, temperature, skin friction and Nusselt number profiles are reviewed using plots. The results reveal that magnetic field, and Inverse Darcy number values increase as the momentum boundary layer decreases. Moreover, higher values of heat sources and thermal radiation enhance the thermal boundary layer. The present problem has various applications in manufacturing and technological devices such as cooling systems, condensers, microelectronics, digital cooling, car radiators, nuclear power stations, nano-drag shipments, automobile production, and tumour treatments.
