Nonlinear Convective SiO2 and TiO2 Hybrid Nanofluid Flow over an Inclined Stretched Surface

Abstract

The hybrid nanofluid is extensively used in manufacturing commercial applications due to its high exceptional capacity to increase the heat transfer rate. As a result, in the existence of nonlinear convection, the hybrid nanofluid is considered to flow on an inclined plane. The nonlinear convection has many applications in real life and is more relevant to the natural flow avoiding the flow restrictions. The focus has been executed on the thermal and mass Grashof numbers to analyse the fluid motion in the presence of these parameters for nonlinear nature. Moreover, the hybrid nanofluid flow analysis has been done to investigate the heat transfer analysis. The modelled equations are solved through an analytical approach. The heat and mass transfer rates and drag force are calculated under the influence of various physical parameters. The new parameter of the Grashof numbers improves the fluid motion for its larger values, and consequently, the fluid rapidly falls down from the inclined plane. The obtained outputs show that hybrid nanofluids are more effective in heat transfer analysis as compared to other conventional fluids.
