Abstract

The present investigation throws light on the heat transfer behavior of hybridized (ferro-aluminum alloy [AA7075]) nanofluid. In addition to that, influences of thermal radiation, magnetic effect, and chemical reaction are also considered for the exploration. Here, the flow is deliberated due to a porous stretching cylinder. The equations that portray the fluid flow are transfused to simple ordinary differential equations by applying similarity elements. Then, the procured equations have been solved by adopting the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg 4th–5th order tool. The extracted solution are exported to plot graphs for velocity, thermal, and solutal profiles with the concerned parameters, and using these plots, the discussion has been produced for the behavior of all flow fields. The behavior of the thermal profile shows substantial enhancement with an increase in the solid volume fraction of hybrid nanofluid. The velocity and concentration panel de-escalates for larger values of Reynolds number. A significant discussion on the skin friction drag, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number has been produced.
