Abstract

ABSTRACT A mathematical model is proposed to analyze the impacts of an inclined magnetic field and velocity slip on a hybrid nanoliquid over an exponentially elongated sheet in the presence of thermal heat flux. In this study, single wall and multiwall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT and MWCNT’s) are considered as nanoparticles with water as a base fluid due to their distinctive nanostructures and excellent thermal conductivity in many industrial and engineering applications. The governing equations are converted into ordinary differential equations by employing appropriate similarity transformations and are then solved by utilizing the bvp4c technique with the help of MATLAB software. The influence of various parameters such as magnetic field (), velocity slip parameter (), angle of inclination (), thermal radiation (), Prandtl number (), the volume fraction of the nanoparticles () on fluid velocity and dimensionless temperature are discussed graphically. The fluid momentum and dimensionless temperature are dominant for hybrid nanoliquid against a single wall or multi-wall carbon tubes/water. Also, the heat transfer rate decelerates by increasing the slip parameter and the magnetic parameter.
