Mixed convection hybrid nanofluid flow past a non-isothermal cone and wedge with radiation and convective boundary condition: Heat transfer optimization by Rusya Iryanti Yahaya, Norihan Md Arifin, Mohd Shafie Mustafa, Ioan Pop, Fadzilah Md Ali, Siti Suzilliana Putri Mohamed Isa

“…Compared to the wedge geometry, hybrid nanofluid flow over the cone exhibits a lower local skin friction coefficient but a higher local Nusselt number. Furthermore, optimization results from the response surface methodology (RSM) indicate that the maximum local Nusselt number, corresponding to the highest heat transfer rate at the cone/wedge surface, can be achieved at high values of the Biot number, radiation parameter, and wall temperature parameter.…”
