Numerical computation for the dual solution of Sisko hybrid nanofluid flow through a heated shrinking/stretching porous disk

The behaviour of shear-thinning and shear-thickening fluids in magnetohydrodynamic flow is revealed in this work, which includes the substantial influence of a Sisko hybrid nanofluid across a permeable radially stretching/shrinking disk. The Sisko hybrid nanofluid is synthesised in the presence of MgO (magnesium-oxide) and Ag (Silver) nanomaterials in the water. The flow problems are arranged in the format of partial differential equations (PDEs) under the influences of the magnetic field, heat absorption/generation, and chemical reaction, which are subsequently transformed into a system of dimensionless ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using appropriate variables. The parametric continuation approach is used to computationally address the modified dimensionless ODEs. The consequences of physical constraints versus energy, velocity, and mass profile are also elaborated. When the influence of suction dominates around 10% in the boundary layer, there is a large increase in the rate of heat transmission, about 13.2%. As a result, as compared to a conventional fluid, the new form of hybrid nanofluid has a higher energy transition rate and thermal conductivity. Furthermore, the drawings reveal that the variation in the quantity of nanoparticles (Nps) and magnetic strength prevents the detachment of the boundary layer. © 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
