Abstract
This work addresses a theoretical exploration of the water-based hybrid nanofluid flow over a nonlinear elongating surface. The flow is taken under the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis factors. Additionally, the inclined magnetic field is imposed in the present study to investigate the flow behavior at different angle of inclination. Homotopy analysis approach is used for the solution of modeled equations. Various physical factors, which are encountered during process of transformation, have been discussed physically. It is found that the magnetic factor and angle of inclination have reducing impacts on the velocity profiles of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid. The nonlinear index factor has direction relation with the velocity and temperature of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid flows. The thermal profiles of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid are augmented with the increasing thermophoretic and Brownian motion factors.
