Abstract

This study examines the flow of the ternary nanofluid over a rotating stretchable cylinder with a torsional motion under the influence of a Cattaneo–Christov heat flux. In order to accomplish the goals of this simulation, a ternary hybrid nanofluid (THNF) that is based on water and incorporates nanoparticles with three distinct morphologies is considered. For assessing the colloidal mixture of spherical, cylindrical, and platelet shaped nanoparticles, the necessary models are used. By using appropriate similarity transformations, the modeled equations are reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These ODEs are then solved using the finite element approach. The numerical integration’s validity and reliability, as well as the newly obtained results, were thoroughly analyzed. Results reveal that the larger values of Reynolds number enhance the system’s inertial force, which resists the liquid accelerating force and declines both velocities and heat transport. The rise in values of volume fractions and Reynolds number declines the skin friction coefficients along swirling and radial directions. The increase in values of both the thermal relaxation time parameter and Reynolds number improves the rate of heat transport.
