Abstract

The numerical investigations of hybrid ferrofluid flow with magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and heat source/sink effects are examined in this research. The sheet is assumed to stretch or shrink exponentially near the stagnation region. Two dissimilar magnetic nanoparticles, namely cobalt ferrite, CoFe 2 O 4 and magnetite, Fe 3 O 4 , are considered with water as a based fluid. Utilizing the suitable similarity transformation, the governing equations are reduced to an ordinary differential equation (ODE). The converted ODEs are numerically solved with the aid of bvp4c solver from Matlab. The influences of varied parameters on velocity profile, skin friction coefficient, temperature profile and local Nusselt number are demonstrated graphically. The analysis evident the occurrence of non-unique solution for a shrinking sheet and it is confirmed from the analysis of stability that only the first solution is the stable solution. It is also found that for a stronger heat source, heat absorption is likely to happen at the sheet. Further, hybrid ferrofluid intensifies the heat transfer rate compared to ferrofluid. Moreover, the boundary layer separation is bound to happen faster with an increment of magnetic parameter, while it delays when CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticle volume fraction increases.
