摘要
This article deals with the study of micropolar nanofluids flow over a stretching sheet. This study uses the compatible models to deal with the effects of two different kinds of nanoparticles (copper (Cu) and silver (Ag)) within the base fluids (water and Kerosene oil). Developed governing boundary layer equations and the boundary conditions are transformed into the system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Numerical results are constructed for velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number by considering the thermo-physical properties of both base fluids and particles. Fluid flow behavior is analyzed through stream lines and a conclusion has been developed under the observation of fluid flow behavior.
