Hybrid nanofluid to enhance heat transfer with velocity and temperature jump impacts

Currently, due to the innovative thermal efficiency, a novel fluid class, identified as 'hybrid nanofluids', is being investigated. It has important applications for heat transfer in domestic and manufacturing fields. These fluids have pretty good applications, in transportation, condensers, industry, medical sciences, power plants, etc. Here, we observed the heat transfer of steady magnetic field flow in hybrid nanofluid over the porous surface. We analyze the mixed convection flow by its velocity slip behavior. The impacts of temperature and temperature jumps are considered. The consequence of heat source is also considered. Sodium alginate is used as the base fluid, and alumina and silicon dioxide are used as nanoparticles in the flow problem. The modeled governing system of equations with boundary constraints is transmuted into the ordinary differential equations utilizing the appropriate similarity variables. Furthermore, the set of dimensionless common differential structures is resolved using the shooting technique Bvp4c in MATLAB. The significance of emerging parameters via fluid velocity and thermal field is explored by the graphical behavior. The computational study for different parameters in the current model illustrates that incorporating the hybrid nanomaterials in the fluid results in more extensive heat transfer than that generated by mono-nanofluid.
