Coriolis Effect on the Flow of Water Carrying CNT, Graphene, and Alumina Nanoparticles over a Heated Moveable Non-porous Surface

Heat transfer fluids, heat exchangers, and coolants in electronics are typical industrial applications where improved fluids are required for optimal performance. Stemming from the increasing demand, this study examines the effects of suction, heat source and stretch- ing ratio on the flow and heat transfer in a magnetohydrodynamic ternary hybrid nanofluid across a moveable rotating surface. Carbon nanotubes, graphene and alumina are considered as the nanoparticles with water as the base fluid. The governing equations are transformed from partial to ordinary differential equations. The equilibrium point of the system was obtained, the conditions for the system stability were established and the emerging parameters were chosen within the acceptable interval. The equations are numerically solved using the MATLAB bvp4c solver. The effects of the flow parameters on the velocity and temperature distribution are graphically illustrated. The analysis shows that the stretching ratio reduces flow temperature and velocity but increases skin friction. Coriolis force enhances the heat transfer rate and increases the primary skin friction. Heat source increases flow temperature and secondary skin friction.
