Abstract:
The present article describes the impact of variable thermal conductivity on the flow of ternary hybrid nanofluid with cylindrical shape nanoparticles over a stretching surface. Three nanoparticles combine in base fluid polymer. The assumption made will be used to model an equations. Modeled equations are in the form of a system of partial differential equations are difficult to solve can be converted to system of an ordinary differential equations, through resemblance substitutions, and will be solved numerically. Numerical scheme of Runge-Kutta order four is coupled with the shooting method to solve the resulting equations. The graphs in the study illustrate how physical quantities, such as magnetic field, injection/suction, nanoparticles volume fraction, and variable thermal conductivity, affected the velocity, skin friction, temperature, and local Nusselt number. The velocity profiles deflate as the volume fraction rises. While the temperature rises with an increase in the volume fraction of nanoparticles for both injection and suction, the velocity profiles also decline as the injection and suction parameter increases. Furthermore, as the magnetic field increases, the temperature profile rises while the velocity profile falls. The temperature curves increase as thermal conductivity increases. Finally, as the magnetic field is strengthened, the Nusselt number and skin friction decrease. The combination of mathematical modeling, numerical solution techniques, and the analysis of physical quantities contributes to the advancement of knowledge in this ternary hybrid nanofluid.
