Analysis of chemically reactive squeezing flow of silica and titania hybrid nanoparticles in water-based medium between two parallel plates with higher order slip

Considering the significance of hybrid nanofluid over convectional fluid in terms of high rate of heat transfer, nanoscience and nanotechnology has been enhanced by dispersing nanoparticles in the base fluid to obtain new material with series of properties and applications. In this study, the analysis of chemically reactive squeezing flow conveying silica and titanium dioxide nanoparticles in water-based medium across two parallel plates with higher order velocity slip is carried out employing three different chemical kinetics for exothermic/endothermic reactions. The system of partial differential equations resulting from the fluid model assumed the ordinary differential form in alliance with appropriate similarity variables. The modified ordinary differential equations is simulated numerically in MATLAB software package using fourth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme in line with shooting techniques. The tested validity for limited case conform to preceding reports in the literature. The outcomes from the scrutiny uncovered in tables and graphs revealed that the velocity and temperature distributions of the hybrid nanofluid decrease steadily as first order slip factor varies from 0.2 to 1.0 but increase with second order slip factor at all levels of chemical kinetics. Moreover, for exothermic reaction, the rate of heat transfer decreases at the lower plate by -221.923% with increasing value of activation energy parameter when m = -2, 0, 0.5 but converse is the case in endothermic reaction as the rate of heat transfer increases by 106.382%.
