AbstractThe fluids flow containing nano size particles is essential in industrial applications, especially in nuclear cooling system and nuclear reactor to increase the energy performance. In connection to this, a trihybrid Ellis rotating nanofluid flow through a stretching surface for increasing the heat transportation is presented. By suspending three different types of nano size particles the trihybrid nanofluid is formed with distinct chemical and physical connection into base liquid. In this article, the nano size particles , and are mixed in (water). This type of mixture helps in degradation of noxious substances, cleaning environmental and many other appliances that requires the cooling effect. In addition, the linear thermal radiation is also considered. The governing equations of the flow and fluid temperature are minimized to ordinary differential equations and these equations are solved by Runge Kutta order fourth (RK45) approach. The approximate results are analyzed via graphs and the results reveal that thermal conductivity of trihybrid nano type fluid is more valuable as compared to hybrid and single nanofluid. Higher values of magnetic and rotational parameter have aggrandized the fluid temperature and opposite trend has observed for Ellis and thermal stratification parameter. Moreover, the results are compared with previous literature and found an excellent agreement.
