Abstrakt: This study aims to propose a central composite design (CCD) combined with response surface methodology (RSM) to create a statistical experimental design. A new parametric optimization of entropy generation is presented. The flow behavior of magnetohydrodynamic hybrid nanofluid (HNF) flow through two flat contracting expanding plates of channel alongside radiative heat transmission was considered. The lower fixed plate was externally heated whereas the upper porous plate was cooled by injecting a coolant fluid with a uniform velocity inside the channel. The resulting equations were solved by the Homotopic Analysis Method using MATHEMATICA 10 and Minitab 17.1. The design consists of several input factors, namely a magnetic field parameter ( M ), radiation parameter ( N ) and group parameter ( B r / A 1 ). To obtain the values of flow response parameters, numerical experiments were used. Variables, especially the entropy generation ( N e ), were considered for each combination of design. The resulting RSM empirical model obtained a high coefficient of determination, reaching 99.97% for the entropy generation number ( N e ). These values show an excellent fit of the model to the data.
