Peristaltic channel flow and heat transfer of Carreau magneto hybrid nanofluid in the presence of homogeneous/heterogeneous reactions

The purpose of present work is to explore the features of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions in peristalsis flow of Carreau magneto hybrid nanofluid with copper and silver nanoparticles in a symmetric channel. The velocity slip condition and thermal radiation effect is also taken in the simplified model. Thermodynamic optimization aspect is discussed through the entropy generation analysis. The proposed mathematical systems are modified by using a lubrication approach and solved by a homotopy-based package-BVPh 2.0. The impacts of different involved parameters on flow characteristics, thermal characteristics, chemically reactive concentration and entropy generation are scrutinized through analytic results. It reveals that the fluid velocity decreases with the increasing values of the Weissenberg and the Hartman numbers. Characteristics of the Brinkman and the thermal radiation numbers are quite reverse for the heat transfer rate. In addition, entropy generation decreases with thermal radiation and Weissenberg number. The main outcome signifies that hybrid nanofluid is better thermal conductor as compared to the conventional nanofluid.
