Flow and heat transfer past a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet in Cu-Al2O3/water hybrid nanofluid
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to study the flow and heat transfer of a hybrid nanofluid, Cu–Al2O3/water, past a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet. The effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are considered here. Design/methodology/approach: Similarity transformations are used to red...
