Abstract

A hybrid nanofluid is an amalgamation of two or more types of nanoparticles in a customary and possesses a variety of industrial applications. This exploration examines the blend of copper (Cu) and gold (Au), and engine oil as a hybrid nanofluid. The model considers the Hall current, Cattaneo–Christov (C-C) heat flux, thermal stratification, nonuniform heat source, and nonlinear thermal radiative effects for heat analysis. Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are obtained through a similarity transformation scheme, and the model is visualized using a MATLAB function bvp4c. Graphs are presented to demonstrate the impact of various parameters on velocities and temperatures, and the wall drag coefficient and wall heat transfer rate are calculated and tabulated for both disks. The results show that a stronger Hall effect leads to a decrease in tangential velocity, while nonuniform heat sources increase fluid temperature. Thermal radiation and stratification have opposite effects on liquid temperature. It is interesting to note that for the radiation parameter at (Formula presented.) a higher heat transfer rate occurred at the lower disk, i.e., (Formula presented.) as compared to the upper disk (Formula presented.) Moreover, for the stratification parameter at (Formula presented.) it is observed that the heat transfer rate is lesser at the upper disk (Formula presented.) than at the lower disk (Formula presented.) Verification of the truthfulness of the proposed model is also included in the article.
