Abstract

The study investigates the flow characteristics of spherical shaped TiO2 –Ag hybrid nanofluid with water as a base fluid passing through a wet porous rectangular moving fin with a focus on understanding the effects of nanoparticle concentration on the heat transfer rate. The fin under consideration are subjected to boundary conditions, insulated and convective tips. Hybrid nanofluid that combine nanoparticles with conventional base fluids have potentially enhanced thermal conductivity and heat transfer properties in engineering applications. The energy balance equation containing the parameters that effect the flow of heat transfer rate is non- dimensionalized and solved numerically using 3-stage Lobatto - IIIa formula with appropriate boundary conditions. The simulation result shows the impact of different parameters on the flow and heat transfer properties of the hybrid nanofluid obtained by mixing spherical shaped TiO2 –Ag hybrid nanoparticles with water as base fluid. It is observed that the fin shows significant heat transfer rate in a convective tip relative to an insulated tip. The findings contribute to the understanding of hybrid nanofluid flow and its potential application in the design and optimization of thermal management system. It also facilitates the ground work for research in the field of nano fluid based cooling system. The observation from the graphical illustration shows that the rise in the thermal conductivity of the base fluid by 23% increases the conduction heat transfer as well as the temperature distribution by 10%. The natural convection and radiation are the key parameters that determines the heat transfer rate from the surface to the surrounding. In our investigation, enhancing the Nc,Nr parameters by 50% and 25%, the temperature distribution profile is reduced by about 13% and 6% respectively. The increase in the Pe number by 100% results in a rise in the temperature distribution by 8%.
