Comparative Heat Transfer Analysis of MoS₂/C₂H₆O₂ and SiO₂-MoS₂/C₂H₆O₂ Nanofluids with Natural Convection and Inclined Magnetic Field

Abstract

This article explores the comparative analysis of MoS 2 /C 2 H 6 O 2 nanofluid and SiO 2 -MoS 2 /C 2 H 6 O 2 hybrid nanofluid natural convective boundary layer flow through a stretching area. Uniform inclined magnetic field is applied together with viscous dissipation. The governing model of the flow is solved by Runga-Kutta fourth orde method using appropriate similarity transformations. Temperature and velocity field are presented for various flow pertinent parameters. It is conclude that if we give an increment in the convection parameter the velocity profile increases and opposite effect is noticed for the temperature profile for both fluids. Also with increased volume fraction parameter Φ 2 , we get increased velocity and temperature profiles for both nanofluids.
