Analysis of the magnetohydrodynamic Maxwell hybrid nanofluid flow over a convectively heated bi-directional stretching sheet with Cattaneo–Christov heat and mass flux model

The study of non-Newtonian fluids has gotten the attention of various scientists and researchers due to its noteworthy applications in various areas of engineering, technology, and industry. This work looks into the thermodynamic and rheological aspects of non-Newtonian hybrid nanofluid flow across a stretching sheet that is conducted electrically. The Cattaneo–Christov model, which is more convenient at the nanoscale, is used to evaluate the heat and mass transformation process and has been employed in energy and concentration equations. The Cattaneo and Christov models of energy and mass diffusion are used to incorporate various physical elements, including thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, Joule heating, chemical reaction, Brownian, and thermophoretic diffusion. The HAM procedure is applied for the computation of the high-order ODEs. The increasing magnetic factor increases the skin friction, whereas the flow profile decreases for an amplified value of (Formula presented.). The temperature gradient of hybrid nanofluids shows an increasing behavior through augmented values of Brownian motion and thermophoretic factor; however, the Sherwood number declines with the Brownian motion parameter. The result from this investigation revealed that the Nusselt and Sherwood number for hybrid nanofluid has a maximum increment than nanofluid.
