Scrutinization of MHD stagnation point flow in hybrid nanofluid based on the extended version of Yamada-Ota and Xue models

This article exhibits a brief comparative study of magnetohydrodynamics stagnant point flow in hybrid nanofluid based on the extended version of two models, known as the Yamada-Ota model and Xue model. The time-dependent and thermally radiative two-dimensional flow is processed with the involvement of a stretchable/shrinking permeable sheet. The suspension of two nanoparticles Aluminum Oxide Al2O3 and Copper Cu into the base fluid water is considered for the formulation of hybrid nanofluid. With the execution of the significant similarity transformation, the nonlinear dimensionless system in the form of ordinary differential equations is developed. The Yamada-Ota and Xue models have been implemented on the dimensionless setup of equations that further are numerically worked out via the bvp4c methodology. The velocity and temperature fields corresponding to the pertinent parameters are figured out and discussed for both concerned models. From this study, we have come up with the result that the heat transfer rate involving the Yamada-Ota model is prominent as contrasted with the Xue model. The larger strength of the stretching parameter boosts up the field of the velocity but develops the deterioration in the temperature distribution. Moreover, the field of the velocity diminishes with the accelerating quantities of the solid nanoparticle.
