    A steady combined convective motion over a rough sphere with hybrid nanoparticles is analyzed. We have considered silica (SiO2) and molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) nanoadditives which are added in H2O to form MoS2–SiO2/H2O hybrid nanoliquid. The partial differential equations describing the boundary layer flow characteristics are reduced into non-dimensional form with appropriate non-similar reduction. It should be noted that the governing equations have been written using the conservation laws of mass, momentum and energy. These considered equations allow simulating the analyzed phenomenon using numerical techniques. Implicit finite difference approximation and technique of Quasilinearization are utilized to work out the dimensionless control equations. The influence of various physical characteristics included in this challenge, such as the velocity fields and temperature patterns, is investigated. The study of border gradients is performed, which deals with the skin friction and energy transport strength. The plots of computational outcomes are considered, which ascertain that velocity distribution reduces, whilst coefficient of friction at the surface, energy transport strength and temperature distribution augment for enhancing values of hybrid nanofluid. For enhancing magnitude of combined convection parameter, dimensionless velocity distribution, surface drag coefficient and energy transport strength enhance, while temperature distribution diminishes. High impact of hybrid nanofluid on energy transport strength and the surface friction compared to the host liquid and mono nanofluid in presence/absence of surface roughness is shown. Velocity distribution enhances for rising values of velocity ratio parameter. Enhancing values of frequency parameter rise the friction at the surface and energy transport strength. It is also examined that the hybrid nanofluid has a maximum temperature for the blade-shaped nanoparticles and has a low temperature for the spherical-shaped nanoparticles

    The fluid flow over a yawed cylinder is useful in understanding practical significance for undersea applications, for example, managing transference and/or separation of the boundary layer above submerged blocks and in suppressing recirculating bubbles. The present analysis examines nonlinear mixed convection flow past a moving yawed cylinder with diffusion of liquid hydrogen. The coupled nonlinear control relations and the border restrictions pertinent to the present flow problem are nondimensionalized by using nonsimilar reduction. Further, implicit finite difference schemes and Quasilinearization methods are employed to solve the nondimensional governing equations. Impact of several nondimensional parameters of the analysis on the dimensionless velocity, temperature and species concentration patterns and also on Nusselt number, Sherwood number and friction parameter defined at the cylinder shell is analyzed through numerical results presented in various graphs. Velocity profiles can be enhanced, and the coefficients of friction at the surface can be reduced, for increasing values of velocity ratio parameters along chordwise as well as spanwise directions. Species concentration profile is reduced, while the Sherwood number is enhanced, for growth of the Schmidt number and yaw angles. Furthermore, for an increasing value of yaw angle, skin-friction coefficient in chordwise direction diminishes in opposing buoyancy flow case, whereas the results exhibit the opposite trend in assisting buoyancy flow case. Moreover, very importantly, for increasing magnitude of nonlinear convection characteristic, the liquid velocity and surface friction enhance in spanwise direction. Further, for increasing magnitude of combined convection characteristics, velocity profiles and coefficient of friction at the surface enhance in both spanwise and chordwise directions. Moreover, we have observed that there is no deviation for zero yaw angle in Nusselt number and Sherwood number

    Influence of liquid hydrogen diffusion on nonlinear mixed convective circulation around a yawed cylinder

    A yawed cylinder is a cylinder inclined in the plane of a flowing liquid. The liquid flow past the yawed cylinder is important for practice, namely, for bubble suppression and control of the boundary layer transition in undersea applications. It should be noted that an inclined cylinder characterizes an asymmetrical behavior of fluid flow and heat transfer. Energy and mass transference characteristics of a steady nonlinear convective flow over the yawed cylinder by accounting for chemically reactive species and viscous dissipation are analyzed in this investigation. The differential equations defining the boundary layer parameters are then transformed into a dimensionless view, taking into account the non-similar transformation. It should be noted that the governing equations have been written using the conservation laws of mass, momentum, energy, and concentration. These considered equations allow the simulation of the analyzed phenomenon using numerical techniques. Further, quasilinearization and implicit finite difference approximation are used to work out the non-dimensional governing equations. A parametric investigation of all the pertinent characteristics accompanies this. A descriptive system of computation outcomes for the velocity, temperature, and concentration patterns, the drag coefficients, Nu and Sh, is demonstrated by graphs. Enhancing the magnitudes of the Eckert number raises the temperature pattern while energy transport strength is reduced. As the species concentration profile diminishes, the mass transfer characteristics are enhanced for raising magnitudes of the nonlinear chemical reaction parameter. Further, a velocity profile along the chordwise direction rises with enhancing magnitudes of nonlinear convection characteristics and yaw angle. Furthermore, the velocity pattern along the spanwise direction enhances with the growing magnitudes of yaw angle. For assisting buoyancy flow, the friction parameter at the border in the spanwise direction enhances with rising values of yaw angle

    Quadratic mixed convective nanofluid flow past a moving yawed cylinder in the presence of thermal radiation and diffusive liquids

    The fluid flow around a yawed cylinder helps to understand the practical implications for undersea applications, such as managing transference, separating the boundary layer above submerged blocks, and suppressing recirculating bubbles. As many authors such as Roy, Chiu and Lienhard, Roy and Saikrishnan, and Revathi et al. have analyzed a boundary layer flow over a yawed cylinder, and their work sticks to only forced convection, we are interested to work on mixed convection flow. Therefore, the work of these researchers has stimulated us to work on the present article. As a result, we have examined the work on triple diffusion quadratic mixed convective nanofluid flow over a moving yawed cylinder. The impact of yaw angle, which exists due to the inclination of a vertically moving cylinder away from the origin, is mathematically investigated in the present paper by converting the governing equations into a compatible form using appropriate nonsimilar transformations and the quasilinearization technique. Nanofluids have crucial usages in science and technology, marine engineering, and applications in industries such as plastic, polymer industries, cancer home therapy, and building sciences. Many processes in new engineering areas occur at high temperatures, and knowledge of radiation heat transfer becomes very important for designing the pertinent equipment. Nuclear power plants, gas turbines, and the various propulsion devices for aircraft, missiles, satellites, and space vehicles are examples of such engineering areas. The finite difference approximation is employed to solve the resulting equations. Enhancing the magnitude of thermal radiation enhances the temperature of the liquid and the energy transport strength. However, liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen species concentration patterns are reduced in nanofluid compared to traditional liquids. At the same time, the outcomes behave conversely in the case of their wall gradients. Furthermore, the temperature of the liquid enhances the enhancing values of Brownian motion and thermophoresis characteristics. Moreover, nanoparticle mass transport augments with enhancing yaw angle and Lewis number values. Both species' concentration profiles decrease for increasing values of yaw angle. The velocity profiles increase for increasing values of velocity ratio parameter in the spanwise and chordwise directions
