Terrific effect of H-2 on 3D free convection MHD flow of C2H6O2-H2O hybrid base fluid to dissolve Cu nanoparticles in a porous space considering the thermal radiation and nanoparticle shapes effects
In this article, the physical aspects of natural convection magnetohydrodynamic flow of Cu/Ethylene glycol-water nanofluid past a porosity vertical stretching sheet under impact of thermal radiation, shape and slip factor and suction/injection process has been analyzed using Runge-Kutta Fehlberg fifth order (RKF 5) numerical method. The influence of variable, different parameters such as nanoparticles shape factor, named hexahedron and Lamina on temperature and velocity profiles are exemplified quantitatively through graphs. Outputs demonstrate thermal radiation impact causes to produce heat and increase the temperature profile by increasing nanofluid molecules energy. Lamina shape nanoparticle has a greater effect on increasing Nusselt number (Nu) compared to hexahedron. (C) 2019 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
