Non-linear thermal radiation and entropy generation on MHD Casson and Williamson hybrid nanofluids across a curved stretching sheet with Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model

This entire study aims to prove the impacts of non-linear thermal radiation and entropy generation on Casson and Williamson hybrid nanofluids through a comparative analysis of the magnetohydrodynamic flow in a porous, curved stretching sheet with the Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model. We used hybrid nanofluid blood based on gold (Au) and Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles. The governing non-linear coupled Partial Differential Equation (PDE) are transformed into non-linear coupled Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) using the Maple software solver using the Homotopy Perturbation Method. The Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) results are compared with the Numerical Method (NM) results, and HPM gives reliable results. The results are provided through the table and graphical representations for several parameters such as velocity, temperature, entropy production, Bejan number, Nusselt number, and skin friction respectively. The velocity profile decreases for Williamson and Casson hybrid nanofluids over a curved stretching sheet while the magnetic field parameters increase. Due to magnetic force associated with Lorentz force, which is known as resistive force, velocity decreases. The Magnetic field on the entropy generation for Casson and Williamson hybrid nanofluids. As the Magnetic field increases, the entropy generation increases for Williamson and Casson hybrid nanofluids. This problem is used in various biomedical situations, including resistive impedance to flow, arteria wall shear stress, and heating impact owing to radiation throughout the surgical process by altering the strength of the applied magnetic field.
