Abstract
The present article describes the hydrothermal characteristics of hybrid nanofluid flow over an extending curved Darcy surface. Darcy-Forchheimer effect communicates the nanofluid flow through the permeable surface. The effects of magnetic strength, suction/injection and nonlinear radiation have been also considered. Magnesium-oxide (MgO) and Silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) are dispersed in the base fluid, to produce the hybrid nanofluids (HNF). The modeled equations are numerically computed through the Parametric Continuation Method (PCM). The upshot of flow constraints on the energy, mass and velocity contour is graphically presented and explained. The result shows that when the curvature component is taken into account, the energy is lowered, but the velocity curve is elevated. The consequences of thermal Biot number intensify the heat transportation rate. By raising the amount of nanoparticle in the base fluid, energy and velocity profiles are enhances. It has been detected that the energy transmission rate improves up to 27.3% by using nanofluid (MgO-water) as the range of volume friction parameter rises from 0.02 to 0.04. However, 39.97% enhancement is observed in the energy transmission rate between nanoliquid and hybrid nanofluid (Ag–MgO/water) as the range of volume friction parameter rises from 0.01 to 0.04.
