Abstract

The current paper explores the influence of hybrid nanoparticles on the dusty liquid flow through a stretching cylinder by employing the modified Fourier heat flux law. Two phase model is implemented in the present research to characterise the fluid flow. Molybdenum disulphide and silver are used as nanoparticles suspended in base fluid water. The equations which represent the described flow are changed into a set of ordinary differential equations by opting appropriate similarity variables. The reduced dimensionless nonlinear ODEs are numerically solved out by using Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth fifth order inclusive of shooting approach. The impact of several dimensionless parameters over velocity and thermal gradients are deliberated by using graphs. Graphical illustrations for skin friction are also executed. Result outcome reveals that, rise in values of mass concentration of particle declines the velocity and thermal gradient of both dust and fluid phases and cumulative in curvature parameter upsurges the velocity and thermal gradient within the boundary. Further, the heightening of thermal relaxation parameter enhances the thermal profile of both fluid and dust phases.

Summary

Introduction

Scientists were involved in performing a noteworthy investigation in the fluid flow area with respect to heat transfer process. Mondal et al [5] examined the impact of viscous dissipation and mixed convection on nanoliquid stream past a stretching cylinder. Khan et al [28] deliberated the impact of modified Fourier heat flux on non-Newtonian liquid stream past a stretching cylinder. In view of the above literature survey, it is obvious to the best of writer’s knowledge, that no efforts have far been initiated with respect to modified Fourier heat flux effect on 2D-stream of a dusty hybrid nanoliquid over a stretching cylinder with mixed convection which constitutes the novelty of the present work. We discuss the consequence of hybrid nanoparticles on the dusty fluid flow through a stretching cylinder by utilising the modified Fourier heat flux law. The structure of the paper consists of five parts: Sect. 1 summarizes a few published investigations and the motives for this investigation; Sect. 2 reviews the methodology used; Sect. 3 describes the Numerical method opted: the outcomes of this study and discussion are presented in Sect. 4; the conclusions and recommendations are given in the last section
