The aim of the current work is to explore how heat transfer can be enhanced by variations in the basic properties of fluids in the presence of free convection with the aid of suspended hybrid nanofluids. Also, the influence of the Laurentz force on the flow is considered. The mathematical equations are converted into a pair of self-similarity equations by applying appropriate transformations. The reduced similarity equivalences are then solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg 45th-order method. To gain better perception of the problem, the flow and energy transfer characteristics are explored for distinct values of significant factors such as variable viscosity, convection, magnetic field, and volume fraction. The results acquired are in good agreement with previously published results. The noteworthy finding is that the thermal conductivity is greater in hybrid nanofluid than that of a regular nanofluid in the presence of specified factors. The boundary layer thickness of both hybrid nanofluid and normal nanofluid diminishes due to decrease in variable viscosity. The fluid flow and temperature of the hybrid nanofluid and normal nanofluid increases as there is a rise in volume fraction.

A new theoretical tri-hybrid nanofluid model for enhancing the heat transfer is presented in this article. This model explains the method to obtain a better heat conductor than the hybrid nanofluid. The tri-hybrid nanofluid is formed by suspending three types of nanoparticles with different physical and chemical bonds into a base fluid. In this study, the nanoparticles TiO2, Al2O3 and SiO2 are suspended into water thus forming the combination TiO2-SiO2-Al2O3-H2O. This combination helps in decomposing harmful substances, environmental purification and other appliances that requires cooling. The properties of tri-hybrid nanofluid such as Density, Viscosity, Thermal Conductivity, Electrical Conductivity and Specific Heat capacitance are defined mathematically in this article. The system of equations that governs the flow and temperature of the fluid are converted to ordinary differential equations and are solved using RKF-45 method. The results are discussed through graphs and it is observed that the tri-hybrid nanofluid has a better thermal conductivity than the hybrid nanofluid.

The present exploration deliberates the effect of nonlinear thermal radiation on double diffusive free convective boundary layer flow of a viscoelastic nanofluid over a stretching sheet. Fluid is assumed to be electrically conducting in the presence of applied magnetic field. In this model, the Brownian motion and thermophoresis are classified as the main mechanisms which are responsible for the enhancement of convection features of the nanofluid. Entire different concept of nonlinear thermal radiation is utilized in the heat transfer process.
