Abstract

The hybrid nanofluid flow under suspension of Gold and Magnesium oxide
nanoparticles (Au/MgO-NPs) propagating between vertical parallel plates is investigated.
Sodium alginate third-grade non-Newtonian fluid is used as the base fluid. The effect of
electro-magnetohydrodynamics is also taken into account. The energy equation also
includes the effect of Joule heating and viscous dissipation. Due to the nonlinear nature of
the formulated differential equations, perturbation strategy is utilized to acquire the
analytical solutions. Discussion and plotting are presented with respect to most significant
parameters. It is analyzed that the rate of heat transfer is dramatically increased, and this
is owing to an increase in the thermal conductivity of the fluid due to hybrid nanofluid. With increment in buoyancy convection parameter and electric field parameter, the flow
is accelerated. It is also noted that the temperature is boosted with increasing nanoparticle
volume fraction of both magnesium oxide and gold nanoparticles. A comparison with
previously studied results is also included. The applications of the work include novel
thermal duct processing technologies in biomedical, nuclear and process engineering.
