Abstract

The insertion of ternary nanoparticles into a traditional base fluid enables the enrichment of thermal attributes. Effective management of thermal transport through particle addition raises the utilization in energy storage and conversion through batteries and photovoltaic cells, water purification and pollutant removal, targeted drug delivery, imaging and diagnostics, sensors, and photonics. Although the introduction of nanoparticles has a physical impact, researchers are beginning to investigate different suspended nanoparticle structures. The most recent approach involves the insertion of three nanoparticles, one of which is a ternary hybrid nanofluid. Therefore, the main goal of this research is to examine the heat transfer characteristics of a Casson fluid saturated by two canonically rotating disks. In particular, kerosene oil-based fluids produce silver (Ag), copper (Cu), and gallium oxide (GO) nanoparticles. Many physical elements, such as permeability, changeable thermal conductivity, magnetic field, viscous dissipation, and space-dependent the latest study then incorporates heat sources that are dependent on both temperature and space. The characteristics of heat transmission in the domain are then visualized using the modified heat flux law (CattaneoChristov) along the linear thermal radiation. The convective condition in accordance with the temperature distribution and slip boundary constraint with respect to the velocity are alos considered. The set of governing equations is transformed into a dimensionless form using von Karman transformations. A numerical procedure composed of shooting and RK schemes is used to obtain the numerical solution. The results are also compared and examined with those of previous studies and shown in comparative manner against concerned parameters for skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number at walls of disks. The outcome of the present work will assist engineers in the field of nanotechnology materials and thermal engineering and many others.
