A novel approach for investigation of heat transfer enhancement with ferromagnetic hybrid nanofluid by considering solar radiation

The intention of the present work is to study the stability analysis of heat transfer enhancement occurring due to the influence of significant properties variation of fluids in the presence of thermal radiation with an aid of suspended hybrid nanofluids. The mathematical equations are converted into a pair of self-similarity equations by applying appropriate transformation. Runge Kutta Fehlberg 45th order method is applied to solve the reduced similarity equivalences numerically. The flow and energy transfer characteristics are studied for distinct values of important factors to obtain better perception of the problem. According to graphical results, heat transfer enhancement is higher for larger values of radiation parameter (R) and higher values of Prandtl number resulted in heat transfer reduction.

Automated summary

This study investigates the stability of heat transfer enhancement due to fluid property variations influenced by thermal radiation using suspended hybrid nanofluids. The results show that increasing the radiation parameter leads to higher heat transfer enhancement, while higher Prandtl numbers result in reduced heat transfer.
