Abstract

Abstract Enhancement in thermal distribution of Williamson hybrid nanofluid flow is articulated in this research. Nichrome and TC4 nanoparticles are homogenously diffused in the water, which is the base fluid. An elongating surface holds the flow and thermal transition phenomenon in the existence of uniform sources of magnetic field and heat radiation. The boundary of wall obeys a suction and slip condition. The formulation for physical conservation laws is made as a system of partial differential equations. For the solution purpose, their boundary-value problem is transmuted into the ordinary differential form. Then, Matlab code involving Runge–Kutta procedure is run to compute the variation in velocity as well as temperature profiles under impacts of the controlling factors. The comparative computations are made for two cases: nanofluids ( TC 4 + water ) \left({\rm{TC}}4+{\rm{water}}) and hybrid nanofluids ( TC 4 , Nichrome + water ) \left({\rm{TC}}4,{\rm{Nichrome}}+{\rm{water}}) . The heat for that hybrid nanofluid case is larger than that for the nanofluids. The velocity curve is decreased against increasing magnetic field strength and Williamson parameter. Enhancement in thermal distribution is observed with increasing concentration ϕ 2 {\phi }_{2} of Nichrome.
