Abstract
Access to dependable and environmentally friendly energy sources is critical to a country's economic growth and long-term development. As countries seek greener energy alternatives, the ...interaction of environmental elements, temperature, and sunlight becomes more critical in utilizing renewable energy sources such as wind and bioenergy. Solar power has received much attention due to extraordinary efficiency advances. under this context, the present work focus on solar radiation and chemical processes in the presence of modified ternary hybrid nanofluids (THNFs) circulating over an exponentially stretched surface in both aiding flow (A-F) and opposing flow (O-F) circumstances. The primary objective of this investigation is to dive into the complicated dynamics of these structures, which are distinguished by complex interactions involving radiation, chemical reactions, and the movement of fluids. We construct reduced ordinary differential equations from the governing equations using suitable similarity transformations, which allows for a more in-depth examination of the liquid's behavior. Numerical simulations using the Runge–Kutta Fehlberg (RKF) approach and shooting techniques are used to understand the underlying difficulties of these reduced equations. The results show that thermal radiation improves heat transmission substantially under O-F circumstances in contrast to A-F conditions. Furthermore, the reaction rate parameter has an exciting connection with concentration levels, with greater rates corresponding to lower concentrations. Furthermore, compared to the O-F scenario, the A-F scenario promotes higher heat transfer in the context of a modified nanofluid. Rising reaction rate and solid fraction volume enhanced mass transfer rate. The rate of thermal distribution in THNFs improves from 0.13 to 20.4% in A-F and 0.16 to 15.06% in O-F case when compared to HNFs. This study has real-world implications in several fields, including developing more efficient solar water heaters, solar thermal generating plants, and energy-saving air conditioners.

The paper communicates the flow, heat and mass transfer of a hybrid nanofluid (AA7072–AA7075/water) between the parallel plates, by incorporating chemical reactions, activation energy and heat ...source/sink effects. The governing partial differential equations are upgraded to ordinary differential equations by selecting relevant dimensionless variables and then are numerically resolved. Validation of the problem is confirmed between the present and existing work for the limiting cases and is found to be excellent concord. Moreover, the graphs are displayed to discuss the flow, heat and mass transport, friction drag, rate of heat and mass coefficient behaviour for different implanted parameters. It is noted that larger chemical reaction values minimize the concentration curve, while activation energy has the opposite pattern. Furthermore, upsurge values of heat source/sink parameter improve the rate of heat transport, but solid volume fraction reduces the drag friction. Also it has been discovered that AA7072–AA7075/water is a more efficient liquid than AA7072/water. Moving pistons, chocolate fillers, power transfer and compression are all examples of areas where the current research may be useful.

•Hybrid Casson fluid flow over a nonlinear stretching surface is investigated.•Combination of Tiwari and Das model and Buongiornos model is considered.•Non-linear and Linear stretching surface cases ...are compared.•Larger of diffusion of Brownian motion and Thermophoresis enhances the fluid temperature.
The purpose of this study is to determine the role of mixed convection, Brownian motion, and thermophoresis in the dynamics of Casson hybrid nanofluid in a bidirectional nonlinear stretching sheet. For the flow model, a combination of Tiwari and Das models, as well as Buongiornos model, is considered. The thermophysical characteristics of Gr, TiO2, and blood are employed. With the assistance of relevant similarity transformation, the describing flow equations of a Casson hybrid nanofluid model are reformed in the form of a system with a single independent variable. The solution for these equations is obtained using the RKF-45 approach. The velocity, temperature, and concentration fields are visually developed for both linear and non-linear stretching sheets, and the implications of the major parameters are presented in detail. It is clear from the current investigation that heat and mass transfer characteristics of fluid are better in the case of linear stretching than non-linear stretching. Furthermore, the mixed convection parameter is found to enhance the fluid flow velocity. However, the trend is quite opposite in the thermal and concentration fields. Meanwhile, the increase in the yield stress caused due to the rise in the Casson parameter decreases the flow velocity.

Thermal radiation and thermophoretic particle deposition have important applications in research and engineering. These two principles are employed in practical applications such as electrical fuel, ...projectiles, thermal transportation, renewable energy, nuclear power plants, gas turbines, and aerospace engineering. In light of the aforementioned applications, the current study investigates the stagnation point hybrid CNTs movement around a rotating sphere in the existence of thermal radiation and thermophoretic particle deposition. Using appropriate similarity factors, nonlinear governing equations are converted into ordinary differential equations. The Runge Kutta Fehlberg 45 (RKF-45) order and a shooting approach are used to find the numerical results of the simplified equations and boundary conditions. The numerical findings are presented graphically. It is explored how different limitations impact their individual profiles. According to the research, primary velocity increases with acceleration parameter but decreases with secondary velocity. As the radiation parameter value increases, so does the thermal distribution. Concentration decreases as both the Schmidt number and the thermophoretic parameter decrease. The heat dispersion rate heightens as the percentage of volume fraction of solid and the radiation parameter increase. Mano CNTs have a higher primary velocity than hybrid CNTs.

Effect of induced magnetic field is critical as a result of much controlled and focused on liquid flow is wanted in numerous modern and clinical procedures for example electromagnetic casting, drug delivery and cooling of nuclear reactors. Hence this investigation explains the behaviour of hybrid carbon nanotubes (CNTs) flow through slipped surface with induced magnetic field. Accumulation of SWCNTs (single wall) and MWCNTs (multi wall) nanomaterial with water base liquid is considered. Thermal performance is analyzed with regular heat source/sink effect. Chemical reaction and activation energy impacts are incorporated in mass equation. Solution of the similarity equations are obtained by adopting RKF45 method. Influence of flow variables are illustrated through graphs and computational values of drag force, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in tables. It is noted that activation energy enhance the concentration field whereas opposite behaviour for reaction rate. Also induce magnetic field boosted with the larger values of magnetic Prandtl number. Furthermore it is observed that hybrid CNTs nanomaterial having higher rate of heating/cooling compare to singular CNTs nanomaterial.

This study is carried out to scrutinize the Hiemenz flow for ternary hybrid nanofluid flow across a stretching/shrinking sheet. This study aims to inspect the impacts of variations in the ...stretching/shrinking parameter and the volume fraction of nanoparticles on key aspects of the ternary hybrid nanofluid flow, specifically the skin friction, Nusselt number (which relates to heat transfer), velocity profiles, and the temperature profiles. The flow equations transform into a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using a similarity transformation. Subsequently, the system is numerically solved using the MATLAB software’s 4th-order accuracy boundary value problem solver, known as “bvp4c”. Numeric findings reveal that skin friction values exhibit variations based on the magnitude of the stretching/shrinking parameter. Moreover, in the specific context of the flow problem being studied, the heat conduction efficiency of the hybrid (ternary) nanofluid surpasses that of the hybrid nanofluid. The system yields two distinct solutions within a specific shrinking/stretching parameter interval. Through an examination of the temporal stability of the solutions, it was determined that only one remained stable over an extended period. Remember that these current findings hold solely for the combination of copper, alumina, and titania.

Studying waste discharge concentration across a convergent/divergent channel is essential in environmental-related applications. Successful environmental administration must understand the behavior ...and concentration of waste contaminants released into these channels. Analyzing waste discharge concentrations aids in determining the efficacy of treatment techniques and regulatory controls in lowering pollutant scales. Because of this, the current analysis examines the ternary-based nanofluid flow across convergent/divergent channels, including non-uniform heat source/sink and concentration pollutants. The study also concentrates on understanding the movement and heat transmission characteristics in ternary-based nano-liquid systems with divergent and convergent channels and maximizing the ternary nanofluid flow’s effectiveness. The equations representing the flow, temperature, and concentrations are transformed into a system of ODEs (ordinary differential equations) and are obtained by proper similarity variables. Further, solutions of ODEs are gathered by using the Runge Kutta Fehlberg 4-5 (RKF-45) method and shooting procedure. The significant dimensionless constraints and their impacts are discussed using plots. The results mainly focus on improving local and external pollutant source variation will enhance the concentration for the divergent channel while declining for the convergent channel. Adding a solid fraction of nanoparticles will escalate the surface drag force. These findings may enhance heat management, lessen pollutant dispersion, and enhance the circulation of nanofluid systems.
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to study the steady biomagnetic hybrid nanofluid (HNF) of oxytactic microorganisms taking place over a thin needle with a magnetic field using the modified ...Buongiorno’s nanoliquid model.
Design/methodology/approach
On applying the appropriate similarity transformations, the governing partial differential equations were transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations. These equations have been then solved numerically using Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method of fourth–fifth order programming in MAPLE software. Features of the velocity profiles, temperature distribution, reduced skin friction coefficient, reduced Nusselt number and microorganisms’ flux, for different values of the governing parameters were analyzed and discussed.
Findings
It was observed that as the needle thickness and solid volume fraction increase, the temperature rises, but the velocity field decreases. For a higher Peclet number, the motile microorganism curve increases, and for a higher Schmidt number, the concentration curve rises.
Originality/value
On applying the modified Buongiorno’s model, the present results are original and new for the study of HNF flow and heat transfer past a permeable thin needle.
Electromagnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) is very important because of its numerous advantages such as flow control in fluidics networks, fluid pumping, thermal reactors, mixing, fluid stirring, liquid ...chromatography, and micro coolers. Based on the above applications in this article discussed the electromagnetic forces on the SWCNT/water flow with microorganisms over a Riga plate subject to slip effects. In addition, the uniform heat source/sink effect is used in the energy equation, as well as the thermophoretic effect in the concentration equation. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs) was reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying the appropriate similarity variables. Hence, Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF-45) method was applied to numerically solve the extremely nonlinear system. Based on the analysis of the results, it is worth concluding that raising the role of slip effects lowers the velocity, temperature, and concentration curves, while increasing the solid volume fraction increases the temperature, concentration, and motile microorganism density.
