Background: It is discussed the radiative magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an incompressible viscous electrically conducting hybrid nanoliquid over an exponentially accelerated vertical surface under the influence of slip velocity in a rotating frame taking Hall and ion slip impacts into account. Methods: Water and ethylene glycol mixture have been considered as a base fluid. A steady homogeneous magnetic field is applied under the assumption of low magnetic Reynolds number. The ramped temperature and time varying concentration at the surface is made into consideration. The first order consistent chemical reaction and heat absorption are also regarded. Silver (Ag) and titania (TiO2) nanoparticles are disseminated in base fluid water and ethylene glycol mixture to be formed hybrid nanofluid. Results: The Laplace transformation technique is employed on the non-dimensional governing equations for the closed form solutions. Based on these outcomes, the phrases for non-dimensional shear stresses, rates of heat and mass transfer are also evaluated. The graphical representations are presented to scrutinize the effects of physical parameters on the significant flow characteristics. The computational values of the shear stresses, rates of heat and mass transports near the surface are tabulated by a range of implanted parameters. Conclusion: The resultant velocity is growing by an increasing in thermal and concentration buoyancy forces, Hall and ion-slip parameters, whereas rotation and slip parameters have overturn outcome on it. The temperature of hybrid Ag-TiO2/WEG nanofluid is relatively superior to that of Ag-WEG nanofluid. Species concentration of hybrid Ag-TiO2/WEG nanofluid is decreased with an increasing in Schmidt number and chemical reaction parameter.

PurposeThe article focuses on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) convective flow of MoS2-SiO2 /ethylene glycol (EG) hybrid nanofluid. The effectiveness of Hall current, periodically heating wall and shape factor of nanoparticles on the magnetized flow of hybrid nanocomposite molybdenum disulfide- silicon dioxide (MoS2-SiO2) suspended in ethylene glycol (EG) in a vertical rotating channel under the influence of strong magnetic dipole (Hall effect) and thermal radiation is assessed. One of the channel walls has an oscillatory temperature gradient. Four different shapes (i.e. brick, cylinder, platelet and blade) of nanoparticles disseminated in base fluid (EG) are considered for simulation of the flow.Design/methodology/approachThe analytical solution of governing equations has been presented. Influences of emerging physical parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles, the shear stresses and the rate of heat transfer are pointed out and discussed via graphs and tables.FindingsThe analysis revealed that Hall parameter has suppressing behavior on the velocity profiles within the rotating channel. The impact of nanoparticle shape factor advances the temperature characteristics significantly in the rotating channel. Brick-shape nanoparticles put up relatively low-temperature distribution in the rotating channel. The Hall parameter reduces the amplitudes of the shear stresses at the channel wall. However, the radiation parameter enhances the amplitude of the rate of heat transfer at the channel wall.Social implicationsThe important technical advantage of hybrid composition of nanoparticles as a drug carrier is its stability, high thermal conductivity, high load carrying capacity, etc. The proposed model may be beneficial in biomedical engineering, automobile parts, mineral and cleaning oils manufacturing, rubber and plastic industries.Originality/valueTo the best of our knowledge, there is little or no report on the aspects of assessment of the effectiveness of Hall current and nanoparticle shape factor on an MHD flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting MoS2-SiO2/EG ethylene glycol-based hybrid nanofluid confined in a vertical channel with periodically varying wall temperature subject to a rotating frame. The present work furnishes a robust benchmark for the dynamics of nanofluids.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to analyze an unsteady MHD Darcy flow of nonNewtonian hybrid nanoliquid past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate under the influence of velocity slip, Hall and ion slip effects in a rotating frame of reference. The fluids in the flow domain are assumed to be viscously incompressible electrically conducting. Sodium alginate (SA) has been taken as a base Casson liquid. A strong uniform magnetic field is applied under the assumption of low magnetic Reynolds number. Effect of Hall and ion-slip currents on the flow field is examined. The ramped heating and time-varying concentration at the plate are taken into consideration. First-order homogeneous chemical reaction and heat absorption are also considered. Copper and alumina nanoparticles are dispersed in base fluid sodium alginate to be formed as hybrid nanoliquid.Design/methodology/approachThe model problem is first formulated in terms of partial differential equations (PDEs) with physical conditions. Laplace transform method (LTM) is used on the nondimensional governing equations for their closed-form solution. Based on these results, expressions for nondimensional shear stresses, rate of heat and mass transfer are also determined. Graphical presentations are chalked out to inspect the impacts of physical parameters on the pertinent physical flow characteristics. Numerical values of the shear stresses, rate of heat and mass transfer at the plate are tabulated for various physical parameters.FindingsNumerical exploration reveals that a significant increase in the secondary flow (i.e. crossflow) near the plate is guaranteed with an augmenting in Hall parameter or ion slip parameter. MHD and porosity have an opposite effect on velocity component profiles for both types of nanoliquids. Result addresses that both shear stresses are strongly enhanced by the Casson effect. Also, hybrid nanosuspension in Casson fluid (sodium alginate) exhibits a lower rate of heat transfer than usual nanoliquid.Social implicationsThis model may be pertinent in cooling processes of metallic infinite plate in bath and hybrid magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generators, metallurgical process, manufacturing dynamics of nanopolymers, magnetic field control of material processing, synthesis of smart polymers, making of paper and polyethylene, casting of metals, etc.Originality/valueThe originality of this study is to obtain an analytical solution of the modeled problem by using the Laplace transform method (LTM). Such an exact solution of nonNewtonian fluid flow, heat and mass transfer is rare in the literature. It is also worth remarking that the influence of Hall and ion slip effects on the flow of nonNewtonian hybrid nanoliquid is still an open question.

Abstract We report on the synthesis and thermal conductivity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) decorated graphene nanosheets (GNs) based nanofluids. The GNs-AuNPs nanocomposites were synthesised using a nanosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser (wavelength = 1,064 nm) to ablate graphite target followed by Au in ethylene glycol (EG) base fluid to obtain GNs-AuNPs/EG hybrid nanofluid. The characterization of the as-synthesised GNs-AuNPs/EG hybrid nanofluid confirmed a sheet-like structure of GNs decorated with crystalline AuNPs with an average particle diameter of 6.3 nm. Moreover, the AuNPs appear smaller in the presence of GNs which shows the advantage of ablating AuNPs in GNs/EG. The thermal conductivity analysis in the temperature range 25–45 °C showed that GNs-AuNPs/EG hybrid nanofluid exhibits an enhanced thermal conductivity of 0.41 W/mK compared to GNs/EG (0.35 W/mK) and AuNPs/EG (0.39 W/mK) nanofluids, and EG base fluid (0.33 W/mK). GNs-AuNPs/EG hybrid nanofluid displays superior enhancement in thermal conductivity of up to 26% and this is due to the synergistic effect between AuNPs and graphene sheets which have inherent high thermal conductivities. GNs-AgNPs/EG hybrid nanofluid has the potential to impact on enhanced heat transfer technological applications. Also, this work presents a green synthesis method to produce graphene-metal nanocomposites for various applications.

A theoretical study is carried out to obtain an analytic solution of heat and mass transfer in a vertical porous channel with rotation and Hall current. A constant suction and injection is applied to the two insulating porous plates. A strong magnetic field is applied in the transverse direction. The entire system rotates with uniform angular velocity Ω about the axis normal to the plates. The governing equations are solved by perturbation technique to obtain the analytical results for velocity, temperature, and concentration fields and shear stresses. The steady and unsteady resultant velocities along with the phase differences for various values of physical parameters are discussed in detail. The effects of rotation, buoyancy force, magnetic field, thermal radiation, and heat generation parameters on resultant velocity, temperature, and concentration fields are analyzed.

A 3D computational fluid dynamics method is used in the current study to investigate the hybrid nanofluid (HNF) flow and heat transfer in an annulus with hot and cold rods. The chief goal of the current study is to examine the influences of dissimilar Reynolds numbers, emissivity coefficients, and dissimilar volume fractions of nanoparticles on hydraulic and thermal characteristics of the studied annulus. In this way, the geometry is modeled using a symmetry scheme. The heat transfer fluid is a water, ethylene–glycol, or water/ethylene–glycol mixture-based Cu-Al2O3 HNF, which is a Newtonian NF. According to the findings for the model at Re = 3000 and ϕ1 = 0.05, all studied cases with different base fluids have similar behavior. ϕ1 and ϕ2 are the volume concentration of Al2O3 and Cu nanoparticles, respectively. For all studied cases, the total average Nusselt number (Nuave) reduces firstly by an increment of the volume concentrations of Cu nanoparticles until ϕ2 = 0.01 or 0.02 and then, the total Nuave rises by an increment of the volume concentrations of Cu nanoparticles. Additionally, for the case with water as the base fluid, the total Nuave at ϕ2 = 0.05 is higher than the values at ϕ2 = 0.00. On the other hand, for the other cases, the total Nuave at ϕ2 = 0.05 is lower than the values at ϕ2 = 0.00. For all studied cases, the case with water as the base fluid has the maximum Nuave. Plus, for the model at Re = 4000 and ϕ1 = 0.05, all studied cases with different base fluids have similar behavior. For all studied cases, the total Nuave reduces firstly by an increment of the volume concentrations of Cu nanoparticles until ϕ2 = 0.01 and then, the total Nuave rises by an increment of the volume concentrations of Cu nanoparticles. The Nuave augments are found by an increment of Reynolds numbers. Higher emissivity values should lead to higher radiation heat transfer, but the portion of radiative heat transfer in the studied annulus is low and therefore, has no observable increment in HNF flow and heat transfer.

AbstractAnalytical analysis of two-dimensional, magnetohydrodynamic, heat and mass transfer flow of hybrid nanofluid incorporating Hall and ion-slip effects and viscous dissipation in the presence of homogeneous-heterogeneous chemical reactions and entropy generation is performed. The governing equations are modified with the help of similarity variables. The reduced resulting nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved with the help of homotopy analysis method. The effects of all the physical parameters are demonstrated graphically through a detailed analysis. The main outcome of the study is the use of applied strong magnetic field which generates the cross flow of hybrid nanofluid along the z-axis. The numerical comparison to the existing published literature is also provided.

Abstract Experiments were conducted to evaluate the thermal and frictional entropy generation and exergy efficiency of rGO-Fe3O4-TiO2 hybrid nanofluid in a circular tube under laminar flow. The ternary nanoparticles are synthesized using the sol-gel technique and characterized by XRD, SEM, and FTIR. The stable ethylene glycol based ternary hybrid nanofluid were prepared and thermo-physical properties, heat transfer, friction factor, and pumping power at various particle weight concentrations (0.05% to 0.2%) and Reynolds number (211 to 2200) were investigated. Enhancement in the thermal conductivity and viscosity of 10.6% and 108.3% at ψ = 0.2% and at 60°C over the base fluid were obtained. Similarly, Nusselt number is enhanced to 17.78%; heat transfer coefficient is enhanced to 24.76%; thermal entropy generation is reduced to 19.85%; exergy efficiency enhancement of 6.23% at ψ = 0.2% and at Re = 1548 is achieved. The pressure drop, pumping power, and friction factor is augmented to 13.65%, 11.33%, and 16% at ψ = 0.2% and at Re = 221.1 over the base fluid. The overall thermal performance of the system is enhanced to 14.32%. New equations are modeled to evaluate the thermo-physical properties, Nusselt number, and friction factor.

Theoretical and numerical investigation of the fluctuating mixed convection of hybrid nanofluid flow over a vertical Riga wedge is considered in this analysis. Two kinds of solid nanoparticles with base fluid at vertical Riga wedge is studied. Thermal and velocity slip impacts on vertical Riga wedge are investigated in the current study. We discussed both the unsteady and steady cases. The water has low thermal conductivity. We added the nanoparticle [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] which increases the thermal conductivity of the base fluid. This phenomena increase the heat transfer rate at the surface Riga plate. Partial differential equations are reduced into an ordinary differential equation by means of dimensionless similarity variables. The resulting ordinary differential equations are further solved through numerical and perturbation methods. Thickness of momentum boundary layer is reduced because of the solid nanoparticle rises in all cases of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]and[Formula: see text]. Our results are more agreeing with the decay results of Bachok et al. and Yacob et al. when rest of the physical parameters dimensions.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the (Au-Cu)/Water and (Au-Cu)/Ethylene glycol hybrid nanofluids flow and heat transfer through a linear stretching porous plate with the effects of thermal radiation, ohmic heating, and viscous dissipation. Similarity transformations technique is used to transform a governing system of partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The NDSolve Mathematica program is used to solve the nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Furthermore, the results are compared with the results of homotopy analysis method. The impacts of relevant physical parameters on velocity, temperature, and the Nusselt number are represented in graphical form. The key points indicate that the temperature of (Au-Cu)/water and (Au-Cu)/Ethylene glycol hybrid nanofluids is increased with the effects of Eckert number and magnetic field. The (Au-Cu)/Ethylene glycol hybrid nanofluid also has a greater rate of heat transfer than (Au-Cu)/Water hybrid nanofluid.
