ABSTRACT

In this analysis, a steady incompressible mixed convection heat and mass deliverance of non-Newtonian (Casson) silicone oil–based hybrid nanofluid flow through a porous rotating disk was numerically studied. Magnetic field, velocity, and thermal slip effects are also considered. We select Cu and Ag as nanoparticles. The mathematical formulation of a hybrid nanofluid produces a set of non-linear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), which are converted to a set of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) by applying fitted similarity transformation. Numerical solution was achieved by employing MATLAB-based bvp4c technique. Besides, physical elaborations of this study are disclosed through graphs and tables. Our results reveal that the Casson parameter intensifies the heat and mass distribution rate in the silicone-based Casson hybrid nanofluid, whereas it displays a reverse behaviour for skin friction.
