Trace of Chemical Reactions Accompanied with Arrhenius Energy on Ternary Hybridity Nanofluid Past a Wedge

Abstract

Highlights: What are the main findings? The problem of 2-D Prandtl nanofluid past a moving wedge is investigated in detail; Tri-hybrid nanoparticles are considered here; Heat and mass transmission evaluations are conducted in the presence of endothermic/exothermic chemical reactions; The moving wedge is considered; What is the implication of the main finding? LobattoIIIA scheme is implemented for the numerical solution of modeled PDEs. Heat transfer is a vital fact of daily life, engineering, and industrial mechanisms such as cryogenic systems, spaceborne thermal radiometers, electronic cooling, aircraft engine cooling, aircraft environmental control systems, etc. The addition of nanoparticles helps to stabilize the flowing of a nanofluid and keeps the symmetry of the flowing structure. Purpose: In this attempt, the effect of endothermic/exothermic chemical reactions accompanied by activation energy on a ternary hybrid nanofluid with the geometry of a wedge is taken into consideration. The mathematical form of PDEs is obtained by Navier–Stokes equations, the second law of thermodynamics, and Fick’s second law of diffusion. The geometric model is therefore described using a symmetry technique. Formulation: The MATLAB built-in Lobatto III A structure is utilized to find the computational solution of the dimensionless ODEs. All computational outcomes are presented by graphs and statistical graphs in order to check the performance of various dimensionless quantities against drag force factor and Nusselt quantity. Finding: the addition of tri-hybridizing nanomolecules in the standard liquid improves the thermic performance of the liquid much better in comparison to simple hybrid nanofluids. Wedge angle parameter (Formula presented.) brings about a decrement in fluid velocity and augmentation in thermal conductivity (Formula presented.), thermal radiation (Formula presented.), thermophoresis parameter (Formula presented.) and endothermic/exothermic reaction (Formula presented.), and fitted rate constant (Formula presented.) accelerates the heat transmission rate. Novelty: The effect of tri-hybridizing nanomolecules along with endothermic/exothermic reactions on the fluid past a wedge have not been investigated before in the available literature.
