Numerical study of heat transfer mechanism in the flow of ferromagnetic hybrid nanofluid over a stretching cylinder

Abstract

In electrical and engineering equipment, heat transfer analysis is critical. Scientists and engineers examined many models in this approach for this intent. The use of various solid particles to advance the thermal characteristics of base liquids is being investigated. In this direction, the aluminum alloys (AA7075 and AA7072) are considered nanoparticles suspended in base liquid (50% of ethylene glycol) at room temperature. The influence of chemical reaction and heat source/sink on hybrid nanofluid flow past a stretching cylinder with magnetic dipole and porous medium is analyzed in this current study. The modeling equations are converted to the system of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by choosing appropriate similarity variables. To solve these reduced equations the fourth-fifth order Runge Kutta process is used by adopting a shooting technique. The impact of influencing parameters on respective profiles is explained graphically. The outcomes reveal that the rise in ferromagnetic interaction parameter decreases the fluid velocity but increases the temperature profile. The increase in values of the chemical reaction parameter declines the mass transfer. Finally, the rise in heat generation/absorption parameter decline the heat transfer rate.
