Abstract

Previous research has shown that incorporating stagnation-point flow in diverse manufacturing industries is beneficial due to its importance in thermal potency. Consequently, this research investigates the thermophysical properties of the unsteady separated stagnation-point flow past a moving plate by utilising a dual-type nanoparticle, namely a hybrid nanofluid. The impact of suction imposition on the entire hydrodynamic flow and heat transfer as well as the growth of boundary layers was also taken into account. A new mathematical hybrid nanofluid model is developed, and similarity solutions are obtained in the form of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The bvp4c approach in MATLAB determines the reduced ODEs estimated solutions. The results show that increasing the stagnation strength parameters expands the skin friction coefficient and heat transfer rate. The addition of the suction parameter also resulted in an augmentation of thermal conductivity. Interestingly, reducing the unsteadiness parameter proportionately promotes heat-transfer performance. This significant involvement is noticeable in advancing industrial development, specifically in the manufacturing industries and operations systems.
