Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the augmentation of thermal energy transfer in trihybrid Ellis nanofluid flow in the occurrence of magnetic dipole passes over a vertical surface. The ternary hybrid nanofluid is prepared by the dispersion of ternary nanoparticles (Al2O3, SiO2, and TiO2) in the Carreau Yasuda fluid. The velocity and heat transportation has been examined in the existence of the Darcy Forchhemier influence and heat source/sink. The phenomena of fluid flow have been mathematically designed for energy and fluid velocity in the form of a nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE)-based system. The system of PDEs is further refined to the set of ordinary differential equations via suitable similarity substitutions. The acquired dimensionless equations are numerically solved with the help of the HAM. It has been noticed that the energy contour is enhanced versus the variation of viscous dissipation and heat generation. A significant contribution of a magnetic dipole is observed to elevate the production of the thermal energy field, and an opposite trend is noticed versus the flow profile. The accumulation of Al2O3, SiO2, and TiO2 nanomaterials in the base fluid "engine oil" improves the velocity and energy profiles.
