Numerical investigation of heat source induced thermal slip effect on trihybrid nanofluid flow over a stretching surface

Abstract

The fluid flow model is evaluated with the mass and energy transfer through the trihybrid nanofluid (Thnf) past a stretching permeable sheet. The proficiency of the nanofluid could be more effective, improved and stable by introducing nanoparticles with various thermal and rheological properties. The trihybrid nanoliquid has been prepared by the dispersion of silver (Ag), cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4), and magnesium oxide (MgO) nanocomposites in water. The consequences of Darcy-Forchheimer are engaged in the momentum equation, to evaluate the permeability effect. The fluid flow is expressed in the form system of PDEs with effect of natural convection, magnetic field and heat source. Which are converted into a non-dimensional set of ODE by using similarity variables substitutions. Moreover, the numerical approach PCM (parametric continuation method) is used to deal the derived set of ODEs. The results are relatively compared to the existing study for accuracy purposes. It has been noted that the Thnf has higher thermal conductivity than ordinary and hybrid nanoliquid. The velocity field rises with the mounting values of the thermal Grashof number. The velocity curve drops with the effect of a power law, Forchheimer's, and porosity parameters.
