Diversified role of linear radiative stretching/shrinking sheet in the time-dependent hybrid nanofluid flow containing carbon nanotubes nanoparticles

In medical applications, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are used as adaptable drug carriers for targeted delivery, utilising their ability to exactly encapsulate and release therapeutic compounds, and as contrast agents in cutting-edge imaging modalities like MRI and CT scans. The current investigation deals with the unsteady flow of hybrid nanofluid via an expanding/contracting surface. The flow of hybrid nanofluid for the conjunction of magnetisation, radiating heat and additional heat source energies the flow properties. The role of suction/injection is vital for the flow through the permeable medium. The hybrid nanofluid is a composite of single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanoparticles in the base liquid water. Appropriate similarity transformation converts the governing PDEs to nonlinear ODEs. Further, these are handled numerically retaining shooting-based Runge–Kutta fourth-order technique. The physical consequence of various constraints affecting the flow are explained using graphs and numerical outcomes relating to rate coefficients are shown via tabular form.
