This study examines heat transfer dynamics in hybrid nanofluid flow in porous media, indicating significant effects from electromagnetic fields.
The interplay between electromagnetic forces and non-Newtonian fluid dynamics presents a complex and intriguing field of study, with significant implications for both theoretical physics and practical applications. This study examines the key characteristics of Casson hybrid nanofluid flow over a stretching surface under the influence of electromagnetic forces. The boundary layer flow is mathematically modelled and a similarity transformation technique is employed to derive the governing equations. A nanofluid is formulated by dispersing zinc oxide (Zno) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) into a sodium alginate base fluid. The impact of various fluid flow parameters on momentum, energy and nanoparticle concentration profiles is analysed. Findings indicate that the application of an electric field enhances momentum and thermal boundary layer thickness, while the Casson parameter suppresses momentum distribution.
