Purpose This paper aims to discuss the salient aspects of the Darcy–Forchheimer flow of viscous liquid in carbon nanotubes (CNTs). CNTs are considered as nanofluid, and water is taken as the continuous phase liquid. The flow features are discussed via curved surface. Water is taken as the base liquid. Flow is generated via nonlinear stretching. Energy expression is modeled subject to heat generation/absorption. Furthermore, convective conditions are considered at the boundary. The Xue model is used in the mathematical modeling which describes the features of nanomaterials. Both types of CNTs are considered, i.e. single-walled CNTs and multi-walled CNTs. Design/methodology/approach Appropriate transformations are used to convert the flow expressions into dimensionless differential equations. The bvp4c method is used for solution development. Findings Velocity enhances via higher estimations of nanoparticles volume fraction while decays for higher Forchheimer number, curvature parameter, behavior index and porosity parameter. Furthermore, thermal field is an increasing function of nanoparticle volume fraction, behavior index, Forchheimer number and porosity parameter. Originality/value Here, the authors have discussed two-dimensional CNTs-based nanomaterial Darcy–Forchheimer flow of viscous fluid over a curved surface. The authors believe that all the outcomes and numerical techniques are original and have not been published elsewhere.

Abstract In this study, we consider the magnetohydrodynamics mixed convective couple stress hybrid nanofluid Darcy-Forchheimer flow through a rotating porous space with velocity slip condition. The nonlinear thermal stratification and thermal radiation of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) are discussed in detail. For relative analysis, we have taken the nanoparticals samples of Aluminum oxides (Al2O3) and Titanium dioxide (TiO2). The rotation in the disk is produces for the generation of the flow in the system.Furthermore, the variable permeability and porosity of porous space is regarded as Darcy-Forchheimer expression. The resulting nonlinear system of ODE’s are solved by Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). The governing of several sundry parameters i.e. “Couple Stress, coefficient of inertia, radiation parameter, magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, heat source or sink parameter” are presented both graphically as well as in numerical tables. The behavior of the flow predicted that the increase of both mixed convection and couple stress parameters cause increase in the momentum profile. Temperature of the system rises for higher values of radiation parameter and magnetic parameter. The higher local heat transfer rate of Aluminum oxides (Al2O3) and Titanium oxide (TiO2)or water is examined as compared to hybrid nanofluid.

The present article provides a detailed analysis of the Darcy Forchheimer flow of hybrid nanoliquid past an exponentially extending curved surface. In the porous space, the viscous fluid is expressed by Darcy-Forchheimer. The cylindrical shaped carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs and MWCNTs) and Fe3O4 (iron oxide) are used to synthesize hybrid nanofluid. At first, the appropriate similarity transformation is used to convert the modeled nonlinear coupled partial differential equations into nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations. Then the resulting highly nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations are analytically solved by the utilization of the “Homotopy analysis method” (HAM) method. The influence of sundry flow factors on velocity, temperature, and concentration profile are sketched and briefly discussed. The enhancement in both volume fraction parameter and curvature parameter k results in raises of the velocity profile. The uses of both Fe3O4 and CNTs nanoparticles are expressively improving the thermophysical properties of the base fluid. Apart from this, the numerical values of some physical quantities such as skin friction coefficients, local Nusselt number, and Sherwood number for the variation of the values of pertinent parameters are displayed in tabular forms. The obtained results show that the hybrid nanofluid enhances the heat transfer rate 2.21%, 2.1%, and 2.3% using the MWCNTs, SWCNTs, and Fe3O4 nanomaterials.

Heat transfer and entropy generation in a hybrid nanoliquid flow caused by an elastic curved surface is investigated in the present article. To examine the effects of frictional heating on entropy generation, the energy dissipation function is included in the energy equation. The Tiwari and Dass model for nanofluid is used by taking water as a base fluid. A new class of nanofluid (hybrid nanofluid) with two kinds of nanoparticles, Copper (Cu) and Aluminum oxide (Al2O3), is considered. Curvilinear coordinates are used in the mathematical formulation due to the curved nature of the solid boundary. By utilizing similarity transformations, the modelled partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations. Shooting and the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method (FRKM) have been used to solve the transformed set of non-linear differential equations. The expression for entropy generation is derived in curvilinear coordinates and computed by using the numerical results obtained from dimensionless momentum and energy equations. Comparisons of our numerical results and those published in the previous literature demonstrate excellent agreements, validating our numerical simulation. In addition, we have also conducted parametric studies and find that entropy generation and temperature suppress with increasing values of dimensionless radius of curvature. Furthermore, it is found that less entropy is generated in regular nanofluid as compare to hybrid nanofluid. To examine the influences of a set of embedding physical parameters on quantities of interest, different graphs are plotted and discussed.

This paper examines the impact of hybrid nanoparticles on the stagnation point flow towards a curved surface. Silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) nanoparticles are added into water to form SiO2-Al2O3/water hybrid nanofluid. Both buoyancy-opposing and -assisting flows are considered. The governing partial differential equations are reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations, before being coded in MATLAB software to obtain the numerical solutions. Findings show that the solutions are not unique, where two solutions are obtained, for both buoyancy-assisting and -opposing flow cases. The local Nusselt number increases in the presence of the hybrid nanoparticles. The temporal stability analysis shows that only one of the solutions is stable over time.
