This research concerns the heat transfer and entropy generation analysis in the MHD axisymmetric flow of Al2O3-Cu/H2O hybrid nanofluid. The magnetic induction effect is considered for large magnetic Reynolds number. The influences of thermal radiations, viscous dissipation and convective temperature conditions over flow are studied. The problem is modeled using boundary layer theory, Maxwell’s equations and Fourier’s conduction law along with defined physical factors. Similarity transformations are utilized for model simplification which is analytically solved with the homotopy analysis method. The h-curves upto 20th order for solutions establishes the stability and convergence of the adopted computational method. Rheological impacts of involved parameters on flow variables and entropy generation number are demonstrated via graphs and tables. The study reveals that entropy in system of hybrid nanofluid affected by magnetic induction declines for [...]

Second Law Analysis

The current study is an attempt to analytically characterize the second law analysis and mixed convective rheology of the (Al2O3–Ag/H2O) hybrid nanofluid flow influenced by magnetic induction effects towards a stretching sheet. Viscous dissipation and internal heat generation effects are encountered in the analysis as well. The mathematical model of partial differential equations is fabricated by employing boundary-layer approximation. The transformed system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations is solved using the homotopy analysis method. The entropy generation number is formulated in terms of fluid friction, heat transfer and Joule heating. The effects of dimensionless parameters on flow variables and entropy generation number are examined using graphs and tables. Further, the convergence of HAM solutions is examined in terms of defined physical quantities up to 20th iterations, and confirmed. It is observed that large λ1 upgrades velocity, entropy generation and heat transfer rate, and drops the temperature. High values of δ enlarge velocity and temperature while reducing heat transport and entropy generation number. Viscous dissipation strongly influences an increase in flow and heat transfer rate caused by a no-slip condition on the sheet.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the irreversibility associated with the Fe3O4–Co/kerosene hybrid-nanofluid past a wedge with nonlinear radiation and heat source. Design/methodology/approach This study reports the numerical analysis of the hybrid nanofluid model under the implications of the heat source and magnetic field over a static and moving wedge with slips. The second law of thermodynamics is applied with nonlinear thermal radiation. The system that comprises differential equations of partial derivatives is remodeled into the system of differential equations via similarity transformations and then solved through the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg with shooting technique. The physical parameters, which emerges from the derived system, are discussed in graphical formats. Excellent proficiency in the numerical process is analyzed by comparing the results with available literature in limiting scenarios. Findings The significant outcomes of the current investigation are that the velocity field uplifts for higher velocity slip and magnetic strength. Further, the heat transfer rate is reduced with the incremental values of the Eckert number, while it uplifts with thermal slip and radiation parameters. An increase in Brinkmann’s number uplifts the entropy generation rate, while that peters out the Bejan number. The results of this study are of importance involving in the assessment of the effect of some important design parameters on heat transfer and, consequently, on the optimization of industrial processes. Originality/value This study is original work that reports the hybrid nanofluid model of Fe3O4–Co/kerosene.

This research aims to investigate thermal and flow behaviors and entropy generation of magnetohydrodynamic Al2O3-Cu/water hybrid nanofluid in a lid-driven cavity having two rounded corners. A solver based on C ++ object-oriented language was developed where the finite volume was used. Parameter’s analysis is provided by varying Reynolds numbers (Re), Hartmann numbers (Ha), the volume fraction of hybrid nanofluid (ϕ), radii of the rounded corners. The findings show that reducing the radii of the rounded corners minimizes the irreversibility. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of hybrid nanofluid contribute to increasing the irreversibility. Finally, the entropy generation is decreased by increasing the Hartman number and increases by rising the Reynolds number.

The present investigation addressed the entropy generation, fluid flow, and heat transfer regarding Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water hybrid nanofluids into a complex shape enclosure containing a hot-half partition were addressed. The sidewalls of the enclosure are made of wavy walls including cold isothermal temperature while the upper and lower surfaces remain insulated. The governing equations toward conservation of mass, momentum, and energy were introduced into the form of partial differential equations. The second law of thermodynamic was written for the friction and thermal entropy productions as a function of velocity and temperatures. The governing equations occurred molded into a non-dimensional pattern and explained through the finite element method. Outcomes were investigated for Cu-water, Al 2 O 3 -water, and Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water nanofluids to address the effect of using composite nanoparticles toward the flow and temperature patterns and entropy generation. Findings show that using hybrid nanofluid improves the Nusselt number compared to simple nanofluids. In the case of low Rayleigh numbers, such enhancement is more evident. Changing the geometrical aspects of the cavity induces different effects toward the entropy generation and Bejan number. Generally, the global entropy generation for Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water hybrid nanofluid takes places between the entropy generation values regarding Cu-water and Al 2 O 3 -water nanofluids.

In this investigation, a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of AlO /water nanofluid and Cu-AlO /water hybrid nanofluid through a porous channel is analyzed in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. An exact solution of the governing equations has been obtained in closed form. The entropy generation number and the Bejan number are also obtained. The influences of each of the governing parameters on velocity, temperature, entropy generation and Bejan number are displayed graphically and the physical aspects are discussed. In addition, a comparison of the heat transfer enhancement level due to the suspension of AlO and Cu nanoparticles in water as regular nanofluids and as hybrid Cu-AlO /water nanofluid is reported.
