Thermal performance of magnetized Maxwell trihybrid nanofluids for high-efficiency industrial energy systems
Efficient thermal management is a central requirement in modern industrial energy systems, where conventional heat-transfer fluids often fail to provide sufficient thermal performance. In this context, advanced energy systems, engineering processes, and industrial frameworks are areas in which traditional fluids have been unable to meet the necessary thermal demand; however, these areas can benefit from the excellent thermal management provided by trihybrid nanomaterials. Integrating the finite propagation thermal model and radiated effects into Maxwell material yields profound insights into actual thermal phenomena under oscillating flow limitations. The current research aims to enhance the thermal performance of magnetized Maxwell trihybrid nanofluid in response to a moving elastic surface with accelerating boundaries. A tri-suspension comprising gold (Au), zinc oxide (ZnO), and titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles in a water-based fluid is considered. The finite propagation waves model is used to determine how well energy transport occurs. Using radiated effects makes it easier for heat to move. An oscillating stretched surface creates flow. A reduced version of the developed equations is achieved in the form of partial differential equations. Homotopy analysis simulations are conducted, yielding numerical results. Additionally, the influence of temperature parameters has been noted to validate the physical importance of the suggested model. A comparative thermal simulation is conducted for hybrid nanofluids and trihybrid nanofluids. It has been claimed that the velocity profile boosted due to oscillating frequency to rate of stretching parameter. The heat transfer enhances with Deborah number while delays in heat conduction is observed for thermal relaxation number. Moreover, the skin friction coefficient presents periodic oscillations with increasing magnitude for Hartmann number.
