Unsteady Hybrid (Ag–CuO/Water) Nanofluid Flow and Heat Transfer due to a Stretching Sheet with Variable Temperature

In this paper, the focal aims are (i) to explore the transient boundary-layer flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting hybrid (Ag–CuO water) nanofluid along a vertical stretching surface (sheet) having non-zero slot velocity at variable temperature, and (ii) to discuss the influences of momentous parameters involved on the heat transfer and skin friction coefficient graphically. The “Tiwari-Das nanofluid model” is used. The central equations (PDEs) are converted into finite difference equations by the powerful Crank Nicolson technique and numerically solved using the Thomas algorithm. The achieved outcomes for a specific case of the challenge are compared with an analytical solution computed using the Laplace transform technique and discovered to be in excellent accord.
