Oblique stagnation-point flow of ternary hybrid nanofluid towards a shrinking surface

The oblique stagnation-point flow of a ternary hybrid nanofluid towards a shrinking surface is studied numerically in this paper.  A similarity transformation was used to convert the governing equations into a set of ordinary differential equations, which were then solved numerically using the bvp4c solver in MATLAB software.  The research, involving three different nanoparticles, provides valuable insights into their impact on the fluid dynamics and heat transfer characteristics of the system under study.  The influence of the parameters $S$, $\lambda$ and nanoparticle

Effect of nanoparticle shape on natural convection in hybrid nanofluid inside square cavity

A numerical study of natural convection in a square cavity with Al$_2$O$_3$-Cu/water hybrid nanofluid, focusing on the effects of nanoparticle shape, is conducted.  The governing partial differential equations and corresponding boundary conditions are transformed into nondimensional forms and solved using the finite element method.  The flow and heat transfer characteristics are graphically illustrated and explained for different nanoparticle volume fractions and shapes, with corresponding average Nusselt numbers.  It has been observed that a variety of nanoparticle sha
