Abstract

Heat transfer characteristics for free convection boundary layer flow with a Ferro-hybrid nanofluid in the Casson field, over a stretching sheet, have been numerically investigated and tested. The constant wall temperature boundary condition was applied in this study. The dimensional governing equations were transformed to partial differential equations (PDEs) and then solved numerically by an implicit finite difference scheme known as Keller box method. The Numerical findings were presented by tabular and figures by using MATLAB program. These numerical findings were gained according to considering and analyzing the impacts of Ferro-hybrid nanofluids Casson parameters, on the local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number, in addition, velocity and temperature. The study results elucidate that Ferro-hybrid nanofluid has the highest local Nusselt number than nanofluid, and it has lower velocity and temperature. In addition, the studied results were in excellent agreement with previously published results.
