Unsteady axisymmetric flow and heat transfer of a hybrid nanofluid over a permeable stretching/ shrinking disc
Purpose: This study aims to analyze the unsteady flow of hybrid Cu-Al2O3/water nanofluid over a permeable stretching/shrinking disc. The analysis of flow stability is also purposed because of the non-uniqueness of solutions. Design/methodology/approach: The reduced differential equations (similarity...
