Aligned magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection flow of Casson hybrid nanofluid over a vertical plate with Newtonian heating

This study focused on investigating mixed convection flow of a Casson hybrid nanofluid over a vertical plate with Newtonian heating, under the influence of aligned magnetohydrodynamics. The Cassson hybrid nanofluid consisted of Copper and Alumina nanoparticles dispersed in Blood, serving as the base fluid. Mathematical models in partial differential equations were formulated to describe the fluid flow and heat transfer, and these equations were then transformed into ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. The resulting equations were solved numerically using the Range-Kutta fourth-order method in Maple, considering various physical parameters such as the aligned angle of magnetic field, interaction of magnetic field, Casson parameter, mixed convection parameter, nanoparticle volume fraction parameter, Newtonian heating parameter, and nanoparticle shape factor towards the effect on fluid velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient, and Nusselt number. Among the nanoparticle shapes considered, it was observed that blade-shaped nanoparticles had the highest values of skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number. The velocity profiles experience a positive enhancement when parameters a , Μ , β , λ , and w are increased. On the other hand, temperature profile decreases as a result of the negative impact of parameters α , Μ , β. , and λ .
