Insight into the Hamilton and Crosser model for ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a Riga wedge with heterogeneous catalytic reaction

The present article is designed to study the Hamilton and Crosser model applied to the flow of ternary hybrid nanofluids over a Riga wedge, incorporating the effects of heterogeneous catalytic reactions. The complex interactions within the ternary hybrid nanofluids, comprising three distinct nanoparticles suspended in a base fluid, present significant challenges in accurately predicting flow and thermal characteristics. The Hamilton and Crosser model, known for its efficacy in determining the thermal conductivity of composite materials, is employed to analyze this intricate system. The analysis reveals the model's potential in offering a comprehensive understanding of the thermal and fluid dynamics involved, highlighting its suitability for predicting the behavior of ternary hybrid nanofluids in the presence of catalytic reactions. The governing model equations and boundary conditions are non-dimensionalized by introducing suitable similarity transformations. Thereafter, the computational Chebyshev collocation spectral technique implemented in the MATHEMATICA 11.3 software is used to calculate the numerical solution. The study reveals that the Casson parameter has a negative influence on the velocity distribution, causing it to reduce as the Casson parameter rises. This research contributes to the advancement of modeling techniques for complex fluid systems, with implications for enhanced design and optimization in various industrial and engineering applications.
