Engine oil (EO) is employed as a lubricant in various machinery engines. Efficient heat transfers are a fundamental requirement for all processes. To improve heat transfer rates and reduce the energy loss caused by high temperatures, this study focuses on incorporating Iron Oxide (Fe3O4) and Cupper Oxide (CuO) into the engine oil as suspended particles. However, the focus of this research paper is to analyze entropy generation in a convergent/divergent channel that contains a hybrid nanofluid. Mathematical modeling is utilized to present the continuity, momentum, and energy equations. Using the resemblance transformation variables, the governing dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are transformed into a system of non-dimensional ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which are then resolved in ascending order through the BVP4c scheme. The graphical results illustrate the effects of various parameters on fluid velocity, temperature, entropy generation, and Bejan number. The study explores changes in velocity profiles under different Hartmann numbers, revealing opposing variations in divergent and convergent channels. Velocity profiles exhibit similar patterns when varying the porosity parameter. In the convergent passage, a higher porosity parameter results in a higher temperature field. Entropy rises against Eckert and Hartmann numbers in both Convergent and Divergent cases. These insights aid in designing and optimizing machinery engines. |
