A study on MHD flow of SWCNT-Al2O3/water hybrid nanofluid past a vertical permeable cone under the influence of thermal radiation and chemical reactions

This study investigates the steady, incompressible MHD flow of a hybrid nanofluid over a vertical solid cone embedded in a porous medium under suction effect. The research explores the effects of various factors, such as thermal radiation, chemical reactions, heat generation, viscous dissipation, and Joule heating on heat and mass transfer phenomena. To investigate the effects of hybrid nanoparticles, we consider single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and alumina (Al2O3) along with water (H2O) as the base fluid. After a suitable similarity transformation, the governing equations are reconstructed and solved using the Keller-box numerical scheme. We present graphical and tabular analyses of various parameter impacts on heat transfer profiles and coefficients. This study provides valuable insights into the control of fluid dynamics and heat transfer in porous media, which have significant implications for industrial and engineering applications. The findings of the current article are in excellent agreement with previously published works.
