A Galerkin strategy for tri-hybridized mixture in ethylene glycol comprising variable diffusion and thermal conductivity using non-Fourier's theory

Abstract

This research is conducted to investigate heat and mass transport past over a stretched surface having pores in a pseudo-plastic model. To study porosity effect, Darcy Forchheimer relation is used. Thermal and mass transport expressions are derived by engaging the double diffusion theories as extensively used by researchers proposed by Cattaneo and Christov. Furthermore, the thermal performance is studied by mixing the tri-hybrid nanoparticles in a pseudo-plastic material. The phenomenon of boundary layer is used to derive the complex model. The correlation for tri-hybrid nanoparticles is used to convert the model partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations (ODE) along with appropriate similarity transformation. The transfigured ODEs are coupled nonlinear in nature, and the exact solution is not possible. To approximate the solution numerically, finite element scheme (FES) is used and code is developed in MAPLE 18.0 for the graphical results, grid independent survey, and tabular results. The obtained results are compared with the published findings that confirm the accuracy and authenticity of the solution and engaged scheme. From the performed analysis, it is concluded that FES can be applied to complex engineering problems. Furthermore, it is monitored that nanoparticles are essential to boost the thermal performance and higher estimation of Schmidt number control the mass diffusion.
