Abstract

The present investigation is carried out to examine the effect of shape factors on the heat and mass transfer flow of nanofluid (Kerosene-Graphene Oxide) and hybrid nanofluid (Kerosene- Molybdenum disulphide and Graphene Oxide) in the presence of thermal radiation and species diffusion in an inclined two-phase porous channel. The Darcy and viscous dissipation effects are incorporated. The properties of hybrid and nanofluids are studied using nanoparticle volume fraction. The analytical solution for the governing equations is obtained by the regular perturbation technique. The significance of physical parameters on the flow dynamics is examined using a visual representation of the solutions. Various entrenched parameters are used in the calculation of the Nusselt number and shear stress at the surfaces. The significant result of this study is the maximum enhancement of heat transfer and fluid velocity in the hybrid nanofluid region with lamina-shaped nanoparticles. An increase in the radiation parameter and the volume fraction of graphene oxide nanoparticles decreases the temperature while opposite phenomenon is observed for MoS2 nanoparticles. This study has been validated by prior research to demonstrate its efficiency.
