Computational Simulation of Unsteady Squeezing Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Through a Horizontal Channel Comprised of Metallic Nanoparticles

Abstract

The characteristics of hybrid nanofluid flow contained copper (Cu) and cobalt ferrite (CoFe₂O₄) nanoparticles (NPs) across a squeezing plate have been computationally evaluated in the present report. In biomedical fields, in very rare cases fluid flow through a static channel. Similarly in industrial sights, we are also often observed that the fluid flows through comprising plates rather than fixed plates (flow in vehicle’s engine between nozzles and piston). CoFe₂O₄ and Cu nanoparticles are receiving huge attention in medical and technical research due to their broad range of applications. For this purpose, the phenomena have been expressed in the form of the system of PDEs with the additional effect of suction/injection, heat source, chemical reaction, and magnetic field. The system of PDEs is simplified to the dimensionless set of ODEs through similarity replacements. Which further deals with the computational approach parametric continuation method. For the validity and accuracy of the outcomes, the results are confirmed with the existing works. The results are displayed and evaluated through Figures. It is detected that the hybrid nanoliquid has a greater ability for the velocity and energy conveyance rate as related to the nanofluid. Furthermore, the energy profile declines with the consequences of unsteady squeezing term, while enhances with the effects of suction factor, heat absorption and generation, and lower plate stretching sheet.
