Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, the velocity and temperature slip effects of a 3D rotating hybrid nanofluid composed of molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles dispersed in H 2 O‐based medium, flowing over a stretching sheet was investigated. In addition, the investigation encompasses multiple effects, including slip conditions, magnetic fields, thermal radiation, and chemical reactions. Notably, this study examines heat and mass transfer under the combined effects of slip conditions, an area that has received limited attention in the existing literature. The problem is initially bounded in the form of PDEs and then changed into ODEs via similarity variables. The BVP5C solver in the MATLAB shooting technique is used to obtain numerical solutions of the existing similarity ODEs. The findings reveal that both the temperature distribution and the heat transfer rate increase with increasing values of the thermal radiation parameter, while the temperature gradient decreases with increasing temperature slip. Additionally, the velocity gradient decreases with increasing velocity slip. The boundary layer becomes thinner at higher velocity slip. Also, the magnetic parameter reduces the velocity up to 15.76% and enhances temperature by about 11.89%. On the other hand, the chemical reaction parameter reduces the concentration profile at around 28.34%. The outcomes of this study are practically applicable in polymer extrusion, plastic sheet manufacturing, electronic cooling systems, and chemical reactors.
