Analysis of second grade hybrid nanofluid flow over a stretching flat plate in the presence of activation energy

The research of fluid containing nanoparticles for the heat transport characteristics is very famous because of its variety of real-life applications in various thermal systems. Although the thermal efficiency of the nanofluid was effective but still the nano scientists were trying to introduce some new advance class of fluid. Therefore, an advance class of fluid is developed by the dispersion of two different nano sized particles in the conventional base fluid known as “Hybrid nanofluid” which is more effective compared to simple nanofluids in many engineering and industrial applications. Therefore, motivated from the hybrid type of nanofluids in the current research we have taken two-dimensional laminar and steady flow of second grade fluid passing through porous plate. The engine oil base fluid is widely used fluid in the engineering and industrial problems. Keeping these applications in mind the engine oil is considered and two different nanoparticles Copper and aluminum oxide are added in ordered to get the required thermal characteristics. In addition to this the thermal radiation, chemical reaction, activation energy, Brownian motion and thermophoresis are also addressed during the current research. The present proposed higher-order PDE’s is transformed to the non-linear system of ODE’s. For the solution of the proposed high non-linear model HAM method is employed. As the hybrid nanofluid are highlighted on the second-grade fluid flow over a horizontal porous flat plate. During the present analysis and experimental study, it has been proved that the performance of hybrid nanofluid is efficient in many situations compared to nanofluid and regular fluid. For physical interpretation all the flow parameters are discussed through graphs. The impact of volume fraction is also addressed through graphs. Moreover, the comparative analysis between hybrid and nanofluid is carried out and found that hybrid nanofluid performed well as compared to nanofluid and regular fluid. The engineering quantities obtained from the present research have been presented in tables.

Engine oil is widely used fluid for many engineering problems and has enormous applications in automobile, heat engine, cooling systems, transformer etc. The regular engine oil have low thermal properties in improve these properties initially, it was proved by Choi 1 , that when nanomaterials are added in a conventional fluid will improve heat transfer properties of the working fluids with good stability. Afterwards, many researchers take interest in the research of nanofluid. Nanofluids have useful applications in different cooling systems, engineering, biology, medicine, nuclear power systems, heat generators, heat turbines, automobile engine and agriculture. Shahzad et al. 2 explored a research by considering engine oil and found the efficient increase in the base fluid engine oil by taking molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles. Arif et al. 3 where the authors inspected thermal transport features of different particles in engine oil and calculated that thermal characteristics can be improved by the addition of nanoparticles in the working fluid engine oil in different operating systems.

Although the performance of nanofluid in different operating systems was good and shows good thermal performance. But still the researchers need to advance cooling properties which cannot be obtained from the simple nanofluid. Recently, the idea developed by adding two particles forming mixture in a base fluid was studied and found the promising performance in the resultant fluid. When the composition of two or more nanoparticles added and mixed in base fluid then the obtained fluid is known as hybrid nanofluid become more efficient fluid in various circumstances. Recently, many researchers took interest in the research of hybrid nanofluid and use in different engineering and medical sciences, like heat exchangers, heat pumps, heat turbines, cooling of electrical circuits, etc. The study of engine oil-based hybrid nanofluid investigated by Asadi et al. 9 , inspected engine oil performan ce by dissolving the mixture of MWCNT and Zno nanoparticles for improving the heat properties and lubrication performance.

The nature have two major classes of fluids i.e., Newtonian and non-Newtonian. Some practical situations where Newtonian fluid is used but many real-world problems exists which can't be explained by the simple fluid. Therefore, the complex nature of the fluid can be highlighted by employing the non-Newtonian fluid models. In order to highlight these complex features of real phenomena non-Newtonian fluids play a vital rule in the investigation of such complex fluid flow problems. The non-Newtonian fluid have a attracted the attention because of novel applications in industries and engineering problems.

Solution of the problem
In this analysis the two-dimensional laminar and steady flow of second grade hybrid nanofluid have been considered over the porous flat plate. In the flow profile we have considered the impact of thermal radiation on the second-grade fluid. Moreover, the impact of chemical reaction and activation energy are also analyzed on the concentration of the fluid. For calculating the solutions of the problem under consideration, we applied HAM method which is strong solutions and have many advantages and characteristics properties compared to other numerical methods. Therefore, keeping the above motivations in mind the present non-linear second grade fluid model of high order ODEs with physical boundary conditions have been solved numerically using HAM technique.
The HAM method is used due to the following characteristics properties.
• The accurate analytical solution has been obtained without linearization and discretization of the given differential equations. • This is a strong method which handle both whether the problem is highly nonlinear or simple nonlinear problem. • The convergency rate can be controlled of the obtained series solution by adjusting with the help of HAM.
• The HAM method can be found easy for computation and free from the errors related to rounding off.

Results and discussion
The current research inspects the incompressible, laminar and steady flow of second grade Al 2 O 3 − Cu/engine oil based hybrid nanofluid passing over a horizontal porous flat plate. The presence of radiation, chemical reaction, activation energy, Brownian motion and thermophoresis are highlighted in current work. The proposed model has system of higher-order PDE's which is transformed to the non-linear system of ODE's. For the solution methodology HAM numerical scheme is applied. Keeping in mind the applications of hybrid nanofluid this research carried out a detail analysis by taking engine oil as base fluid and two nanoparticles Al 2 O 3 and Cu are added for the advance cooling applications in engineering problems. From many early studies it was found that hybrid nanofluid is more effective compared to simple mon0 nano liquids and regular fluids. Therefore, hybrid nanofluid is considered in the current research. In addition to this all the physical parameters are portrayed through graphs to highlight the behavior of each parameter in the dynamics of the fluid. The impact of volume fraction on the flow, heat and mass are also evaluated and presented in graphs. Moreover, the comparative analysis between hybrid and nanofluid is carried out and found that hybrid nanofluid performed well as compared to nanofluid and regular fluid. The engineering quantities obtained from the present research have been presented in tables. Moreover, the geometry of flow is given in Fig. 1. The influence of Ŵ , φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu ,φ Cu ,K on the velocity profile is portrayed in Figs. (2, 3, 4) respectively. Similarly, thee impact of Ŵ , φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu ,φ Cu ,Nr and Ec on the temperature profile are plotted in Figs. (5, 6, 7, 8) respectively. The effect of φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu ,φ Cu ,Sc,E 1 ,σ 1 and K 2 are highlighted on the concentration of the second grade fluid in Figs. (9, 10, 11, 12, 13) respectively. Furthermore, from Figs. (2, 3,           Figure 5 investigates the trends of second grade parameter Ŵ on the temperature of the fluid. From the figure it can be inspected that the temperature of the fluid gets lowered for the increment of Ŵ it is due to the fact that second grade parameter Ŵ increase the density of the fluid. Therefore, higher the density will decrease reduced the temperature it is because density is inversely proportional to the temperature of the fluid. Therefore, increasing Ŵ will increase the density consequently the fluid temperature declines. The temperature of hybrid nanofluid for different values of volume fraction φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu and φ Cu are highlighted in Fig. 6. Moreover, in the figure we have plotted the impact of volume fraction hybrid nanofluid when Ŵ = 1.5 , and the impact of nanofluid volume friction when Ŵ = 2.5 . The thermal profile shows that elevated values of the nanoparticles concentration will increases the friction between the particles in the fluid which make an increase in the temperature of the working fluid. Secondly, the increase in the temperature in this case is since higher the concentration a greater collision will occur within the fluid as result kinetic energy increase which responsible for the boost up the temperature. Furthermore, in the figure we developed the comparative analysis between the mixture of nanoparticles and a single nanoparticle in engine and found that the performance of hybrid nanofluid have good thermal properties. Figure 7 highlighted the impact of Nr on the fluid temperature. The fluctuation in temperature is elucidated and found that elevated values of Nr will increase the temperature of the fluid in both the cases nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid. The radiation causes an increase in the total internal energy of the fluid due to which temperature of the fluid get higher. The fluctuation in temperature of the fluid versus elevated values of Ec is highlighted in Fig. 8. This variation in temperature profile is occur because higher the Ec temperature profile attains high values. This trends in the temperature are since higher values of Ec improve the temperature profile because there is maximum friction within the fluid due to which temperature get higher. Higher Ec means a maximum heat transport characteristics appears in the fluid due to maximum resistive forces within the fluid and hence temperature get higher. The concentration of hybrid nanofluid for different values of volume fraction φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu and φ Cu are displayed in Fig. 9. In the present figure at the same time, we show the variation in concentration profile for two different values of Sc = 1 and Sc = 3 . It is worth noting from the figure that the impact of volume fraction of hybrid nanofluid φ Al 2 O 3 +Cu is plotted for Sc = 1 and in case of nanofluid volume fraction φ Cu the Schmidt number Sc = 3 . The concertation gets lower as we gradually increase nanoparticles volume fraction in both the cases hybrid nanofluid and nanofluid as well. Figure 10 display the evolvement of Schmidt Sc on the concertation of the fluid. From the figure the higher the values of Sc a decline have been noticed in the concertation of the fluid in both the cases hybrid nanofluid and nanofluid. It is worth noting that Sc is the ratio among the kinematic viscosity to the molecular diffusion coefficient. When the Sc taken higher as a result the viscosity become dominant consequently the concertation profile decreases as shown in the figure. The non-dimensional parameter of activation energy E 1 are highlighted in Fig. 11. From the figure by selecting the high numerical values of E 1 increases the boundary layer thickness of the concertation profile consequently an increase is noticed in the concertation of the fluid flow due to which mass concentration get higher for hybrid nanofluid and unitary nanofluid as shown in the figure. Figure 12 elucidates the impact of temperature difference parameter σ 1 on the concertation profile of the fluid. An increase in the non-dimensional parameter σ 1 causes concertation reduction because σ 1 reduces the concentration within the fluid due to which a decrement is noticed in both hybrid nanofluid and mono nanofluid as shown in the figure. Figure 13 elucidates the impact of chemical reaction parameter K 2 on the concertation profile of the fluid. An increase in the non-dimensional parameter K 2 is responsible for the thickening of the mass transfer in the boundary layer region due to which the concentration reduces in both the cases hybrid nanofluid and unitary nanofluid as shown in figure. Table 1 shows the thermos-physical properties of engine oil base fluid and aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) and Copper (Cu) nanoparticles.  Table 3 presented the calculation of Sherwood number (Sh) for various flow parameters.      www.nature.com/scientificreports/ From the table Sh get lower for higher values of E 1 , Sc and K 2 for hybrid nanofluid and mono nanofluid. Table 4 elaborates the relative comparison for skin friction and Nusselt using nanoparticles volume fraction, magnetic effect and Prandtl number versus published study. It can be clearly observed that both results are in best settlement with each other and ensure the accuracy of the present outcomes.
