Impact of thermal radiative Carreau ternary hybrid nanofluid dynamics in solar aircraft with entropy generation: significance of energy in solar aircraft.

The main source of thermal energy is the sun, and with the increase in solar technology, it is now being utilized in many devices such as sun-based panels, photovoltaic cells, batteries and lights, solar fabric, solar water pumping, etc. Nowadays, improvement in flight effectiveness of solar aircraft by utilizing solar energy and nanotechnology is being studied by many scientists. This article is also based on studying the effectiveness of solar aircraft based on solar energy and nanotechnology. For this purpose, few properties of heat transfer among symmetrical wings will be analysed such as porous surface, thermal radiation, convective condition and heat source/sink. It is considered that the ternary hybrid nanofluid moves through the internal side of parabolic trough solar collector. The current study examines the radiative flow of a Carreau tri-hybrid nanoliquid across a convectively heated stretching surface in porous media. Also entropy generation on Carreau fluid is analysed in this work. Energy equation is modelled through heat source/sink and thermal radiation. The well-established numeric technique BVP4c has been used to solve the system of differential equations in the form of concentration, energy and momentum. Several flow variables on fluid velocity, temperature, drag friction, the Nusselt, entropy generation and Bejan number are described in figures and tables. The main outcomes of the current investigation are that the velocity and temperature lowered with augmenting values of Weissenberg number We . Results will prove that THNF is larger in the case of HNF and NF. Further, the drag friction and thermal efficiency of Thnf ( MoS 2 + SiO 2 + Fe 3 O 4 /EG ), Hnf ( MoS 2 + SiO 2 /EG ) and Nf ( MoS 2 /EG ) are computed in percentage with numerous values. The second finding is the addition of entropy due to the increasing magnitude of radiative flow, Carreau fluid variable. When comparing the current results to the reported results, we get a close match. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
