Summary: | Ultrahigh-performance cooling is one of the essential requirements in the industrial technology. Hence, the new heat transfer fluid, hybrid nanofluid is introduced to increase the thermal conductivity of fluid and investigated with various physical parameters. The unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of Casson hybrid nanofluid through two surfaces in a permeable medium with chemical reaction are explored. The hybrid nanoparticles of Alumina (Al2O3) and Copper (Cu) is dispersed in the base fluid of sodium alginate (C6H9NαO7). The discretize equations are solved using similarity transformation and Keller-box methods. The comparison of the current results with the published results for validation is conducted and discovered in proper agreement. The impacts of squeeze, magnetic, porous media, chemical reaction, heat sink/source, and Soret and Dufour on behaviour and physical quantities of flow are discussed. The graphical results show the squeeze of two surfaces accelerates the fluid velocity near the upper plate region. Further, the velocity slowing down when β and Hα increases, and it elevates as Dα and ϕ2 rises in the middle of channel. The increment of heat transfer rate and temperature of fluid is shown for increasing Ec, γ and Du, and the opposite behaviour is discovered with raise in ϕ2. The fluid concentration decreases and the mass transfer rate enhances for rising Sr. The concentration enhance and rate of mass transfer reduce with the constructive chemical reaction, whereas contrary effects is shown for destructive chemical reaction. © 2024, Semarak Ilmu Publishing.
