Abstract

This article mainly presents a comparative analysis of MHD flow of three different types of fluids, namely, simple base fluid (Ethylene Glycol), mono-nanofluid (Ethylene Glycol+Graphene) and Hybrid nanofluid (Ethylene Glycol+Graphene+Copper) passing through a squeezing channel. The effect of heat absorption and Joule dissipation is also taken into account. System of partial differential equation governing the flow problem is transformed into a system of ordinary differential equation by using similarity transforms. To get the solution, shooting technique along with Runge-Kutta 4th order method is employed. The influence of several physical parameter on velocity, temperature, skin friction and Nusselt number is analyzed. The findings indicate that temperature increases with the enhancement of a magnetic field and Joule dissipation. Moreover, the study reveals that the temperature of mono-nanofluid is higher than that of the base fluid but lower than that of the hybrid nanofluid.
