Abstract

In this study, mixed convective hybrid-nanofluid flow in a partially heated square cavity with two rotating rough cylinders in presence of an external magnetic field is numerically investigated. A pair of rotating rough cylinders is placed at different locations inside the cavity. The cavity is permeated by an external magnetic field at different inclination angles. Maxwell's thermal conductivity model is modified incorporating Brownian motion of hybrid nanoparticles. The conservation equations of the flow and thermal fields are simulated using finite element method. The effects of different influential parameters such as cylinders rotation velocity (0 ≤ ω ≤ 50), Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤50), hybrid nanoparticle volume fraction (0% ≤ φ ≤ 5%) and magnetic inclination angle (0° ≤ α…
