Magnetohydrodynamics Flow of Hybrid Nanofluid Rotating in Annulus Through Two Coaxial Cylinders

What is it about?

This study investigates the flow behavior of a hybrid nanofluid rotating in an annulus within a coaxial cylinder. It compares heat performance of the hybrid nanofluid (graphene oxide (GO), copper (Cu), and kerosene oil) with kerosene and a nanofluid of copper and kerosene oil. Results show that a higher magnetic field enhances temperature distribution and azimuthal velocity in the annulus center, benefiting heat transfer, particularly for the hybrid nanofluid. The study explores scenarios with electrically insulating and conducting walls, finding electromagnetic damping more pronounced when walls are conducting.
