The present study is related to the analytical investigation of the magnetohydrodynamic flow of Ag − MgO/ water hybrid nanoliquid with slip conditions via an extending surface. The thermal radiation and Joule heating effects are incorporated within the existing hybrid nanofluid model. The system of higher-order partial differential equations is converted to the nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations by interpreting the similarity transformations. With the implementation of a strong analytical method called HAM, the solution of resulting higher-order ordinary differential equations is obtained. The results of the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, velocity profile, and temperature profile of the hybrid nanofluid for varying different flow parameters are attained in the form of graphs and tables. Some important outcomes showed that the Nusselt number and skin friction are increased with the enhancement in Eckert number, stretching parameter, heat generation parameter and radiation parameter for both slip and no-slip conditions. The thermal profile of the hybrid nanofluid is higher for suction effect but lower for Eckert number, stretching parameter, magnetic field, heat generation and radiation parameter. For both slip and no-slip conditions, the hybrid nanofluid velocity shows an upward trend for both the stretching and mixed convection parameters.

This study presents the magnetized hybrid nanofluid flow with heat source/sink over an exponentially stretching/shrinking sheet. Slip conditions are implemented to analyze the hybrid nanofluid flow for both slip and no-slip conditions. Additionally, the hybrid nanofluid of alumina and copper (hybrid nanoparticles) with blood (base fluid) has been considered and discussed with both suction and injection parameters. The appropriate similarity variables are used to convert partial differential equations (PDEs) into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and solved analytically with the help of the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The impact of different embedded parameters has been shown in the form of graphs and tables. The numerical values of skin friction and Nusselt number are presented in the form of Tables for both slip and no-slip cases. It is summarized that the upsurge of the velocity slip parameter and magnetic parameter increases the skin friction, while the rising of the thermal slip parameter and heat generation parameter decreases the Nusselt number.

In this paper, Hydromagnetic mixed convection flow of an exothermic fluid in a vertical channel is considered. The dimensionless ordinary differential equations were solved using differential transformation method (DTM) to obtain the expression of velocity, temperature and concentration. From momentum, energy and mass equations.  The effect of Skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number with various parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration are presented and discussed. The result indicated that the effect of t, is to increase the Skin friction while K increases it at upper plate and suppresses it at lower plate.

Purpose This paper aims to discuss a stability analysis on Cu-Al2O3/water nanofluid having a radiation and suction impacts over a rotating stretching/shrinking sheet. Design/methodology/approach The partial differential equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation and then being solved numerically using built in function in Matlab software (bvp4c). The effects of pertinent parameters on the temperature and velocity profiles together with local Nusselt number and skin friction are reported. Findings Compared to previously published studies, the current work is noticed to be in good deal. The analysis further shows that the non-unique solutions exist for certain shrinking parameter values. Hence, a stability analysis is executed using a linear temporal stability analysis and concluded that the second solution is unstable, while the first solution is stable. The effect of suction parameter is observed to be significant in obtaining the solutions. The improvement of the local skin friction and the decrease of the local Nusselt number on the shrinking surface are observed with the increment of the copper nanoparticle volume fractions. Originality/value The originality of current work is the numerical solutions and stability analysis of hybrid nanofluid in rotating flow. This work has also resulted in producing the non-unique solutions for the shrinking sheet, and a stability analysis has also been executed for this flow showing that the second solution is unstable, while the first solution is stable. This paper is therefore valuable for engineers and scientist to get acquainted with the properties of the flow, its behavior and the way to predict it. The authors admit that all the findings are original and were not published anywhere else.

Abstract In this paper, we have investigated thermally stratified MHD flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid over an inclined stretching surface in the presence of heat generation/absorption. Similarity solutions for the transformed governing equations are obtained. The reduced equations are solved numerically using the Runge–Kutta Fehlberg method with shooting technique. The influences of various involved parameters on velocity profiles, temperature profiles, local skin friction, and local Nusselt number are discussed. Numerical values of local skin friction and local Nusselt number are computed. The significant outcomes of the study are that the velocity decreases when the radiation parameter $$R_{d}$$ R d is increased while the temperature profile is increased for higher values of radiation parameter $$R_{d}$$ R d in case of opposing flow, moreover, growth in Deborah number $$\beta_{2}$$ β 2 enhance the velocity and momentum boundary layer. The heat transfer rate is decrease due to magnetic strength but increase with the increased values of Prandtl and Deborah numbers. The results of this model are closely matched with the outputs available in the literature.

This study presents the effect of thermal radiation on the steady flow in a vertical micro channel filled with highly absorbing medium. The governing equations (mass, momentum and energy equation with Rosseland approximation and slip boundary condition) are solved analytically. The effects of thermal radiation parameter, the temperature parameter, Reynolds number, Grashof number, velocity slip length, and temperature jump on the velocity and temperature profiles, Nusselt number, and skin friction coefficient are investigated. Results show that the skin friction and the Nusselt number are increased with increase in Grashof number, velocity slip, and pressure gradient while temperature jump and Reynolds number have an adverse effect on them. Furthermore, a criterion for the flow unsteadiness based on the temperature parameter, thermal radiation parameter, and the temperature jump is presented.

Abstract In this work, an analysis is presented for the unsteady axisymmetric flow of Oldroyd-B nanofluid generated by an impermeable stretching cylinder with heat and mass transport under the influence of heat generation/absorption, thermal radiation and first-order chemical reaction. Additionally, thermal and solutal performances of nanofluid are studied using an interpretation of the well-known Buongiorno's model, which helps us to determine the attractive characteristics of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion. Firstly, the governing unsteady boundary layer equation's (PDEs) are established and then converted into highly non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using the suitable similarity transformations. For the governing non-linear ordinary differential equations, numerical integration in domain [0, ∞) is carried out using the BVP Midrich scheme in Maple software. For the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions, reliable results are prepared for different physical flow constraints. According to the results, for increasing values of Deborah numbers, the temperature and concentration distribution are higher in terms of relaxation time while these are decline in terms of retardation time. Moreover, thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption are increased the temperature distribution and corresponding boundary layer thickness. With previously stated numerical values, the acquired solutions have an excellent accuracy.
