A comparative study for convective flow of basefluid (gasoline oil), nanomaterial (SWCNTs) and hybrid nanomaterial (SWCNTs plus MWCNTs)

In this communication, we have investigated flow of hybrid nanomaterial (SWCNTs + MWCNTs) by a curved stretched surface. Relative analysis of nanomaterial (SWCNTs) and hybrid nanomaterial (SWCNTs + MWCNTs) is performed. Gasoline oil is treated as basefluid. Heat transfer features are elaborated via thermal radiation and convection. Equations relevant to flow field (PDEs) are transmitted into ODEs through adequate transformations. Solutions are developed via the shooting method. Furthermore, relative analysis of basefluid (gasoline oil), nanomaterial (SWCNTs) and hybrid nanomaterial (SWCNTs + MWCNTs) is presented through higher estimations of influential flow parameters during observation of flow, skin friction coefficient, temperature and Nusselt number.
