Abstract
The axisymmetric stagnation point flow of brick and blade-shaped Silver and Copper nanoparticles immersed in an ethylene glycol base fluid under the influence of an induced magnetic field over an unsteady radial stretching surface is investigated in this study. The unsteady phenomenon is considered because most flow issues in practice are unsteady. The fundamental laws of mass, momentum, and energy conservation are used to present the physical model. Heat transmission is also examined under the effects of magnetohydrodynamics, Joule heating, viscous dissipation, and convective boundary conditions to give a realistic physical investigation. Scaling analysis transforms the flow-governing issue into a collection of higher-order nonlinear ODEs. These are, then, solved numerically using the fourth-order Runge–Kutta and shooting techniques. Moreover, the numerical technique is validated by calculating residual error. It is concluded that, compared to the Ag–EG nanofluid, the Cu–EG nanofluid had the highest IMF, lowest temperature, minimum surface drag, and maximum heat flux, making it the ideal choice for creating a radial module.
