...C. Sulochana; S.R. Aparna Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze heat and mass transport mechanism of unsteady MHD thin film flow of aluminium–copper/water hybrid nanofluid influenced by thermophoresis, Brownian motion and radiation. Design/methodology/approach The authors initially...

... Brownian motion are considered. The results have attainable scientific and technological applications in systems involving stretchable materials. Design/methodology/approach The model equations governing the flow are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations which are then reworked...

... thermal conductivity and magnetic field. The effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion on the Eyring‒Powell nanofluid heat and concentration are also considered. The flow fluid is propelled by squeezing force and constant pressure gradient. The hydromagnetic fluid is induced by periodic time...

... (0=P=6) on axial velocity are shown graphically. Numerical results were compared with another numerical approach and an excellent agreement was observed. This study reveals the fact that the Brownian motion parameter and boundary layer thickness have a direct relationship with temperature...

... to irregular heat sink/source, thermophoresis and Brownian motion of nanoparticles. Design/methodology/approach At first, proper transmutations are pondered to metamorphose the basic flow equations as ODEs. The solution of these ODEs is procured by the consecutive application of Shooting and Runge-Kutta...

... governing PDEs are reduced to ODEs by utilizing pertinent transmutations and then resolved by employing a fourth-order Runge-Kutta-based shooting technique. The energy and diffusion equations are incorporated with Brownian motion, thermophoresis and Soret parameters. The velocity, thermal and concentration...

... as the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis on nanoparticle fraction are passively controlled on the boundary rather than actively. Design/methodology/approach The partial differential equations governing the flow are reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations. Viable...
