Popis: | To address the limitations of nanofluids and combine the physical and chemical characteristics of nanoparticles in a meaningful way, researchers have been focusing on the usage of hybrid nanofluids. A rising number of studies have been conducted in the literature to explore the thermal performance of hybrid nanomaterials. In the current study, dual analysis is carried out to show the impact of theoretical correlations on the heat transfer capabilities of hybrid nanofluids. In this context, a mathematical model for a hybrid nanofluid is developed employing ethylene glycol as a base fluid, conveying magnesia and silver as nanoparticles on an inclined porous stretching/shrinking surface. The thermal transport aspects of a hybrid nanofluid are analyzed in terms of thermal radiation, Ohmic and viscous dissipation, and variable heat source/sink effects. The mathematical model is numerically solved using the bvp4c function in the MATLAB program. The outcomes of controlling factors on the fluid velocity, thermal distributions, as well as friction drag coefficient and heat transfer rate, are illustrated graphically. The findings show that due to remarkable thermal capabilities, the hybrid nanofluid is more effective at transferring heat than ordinary nanofluid. Additionally, the upshots show that the suction and magnetic parameter expands the shrinking range for which the dual solution lives. |
