Significance of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion and induced magnetic field on Maxwell ternary nanofluid flow with magnetic response boundary

Abstract

The present study delves into the significance of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion and the induced magnetic field (IMF) on a stagnation-point flow of Maxwell ternary nanofluids. A new boundary condition with the magnetic response is designed to study superior heat and mass transfer of Maxwell ternary nanofluid combined with double diffusion and IMF. The governing equations are formulated by mathematically modeling of the current flow in a Cartesian coordinate system and solved using an improved shooting method and the Runge-Kutta method. Through the application of similarity transformations, the governing equations are transformed into a system of initial boundary value ordinary differential equations. These equations are further transformed into linear equations with initial value problems using the shooting method and subsequently solved using the Runge-Kutta method and Newton's iterative techniques. The numerical results and correlation analysis vividly demonstrate the profound influence of double diffusion and IMF on thermal and concentration patterns via graphical representations. It is found that the double diffusion and the induced magnetic field always helps to achieve lower temperature and concentration. The magnetic response boundary leads to higher heat and mass transfer efficiency for the suction case. The magnetically responsive boundary is verified to be effective for regulating the heat and mass transfer of ternary nanofluid.
