Analysis of multilayer convective flow of a hybrid nanofluid in porous medium sandwiched between the layers of nanofluid
AgBr acts as a good sensitizer for titanium oxide, hence TiO2–AgBr nanoparticles exhibit high photocatalytic activity which helps decompose methyl orange under visible light irradiation. Methyl orange is a chemical compound that is hard to degrade and has high stability. It is photoreactive and can capture photons from the sun and is highly used as a light harvester in solar cells, hence, it is used in solar applications. In view of this, the present article deals with the analysis of heat transfer in a multilayer flow of two immiscible nanofluids in a vertical channel that finds application in the fields of solar reactors, electronic cooling, and so on. The mathematical model involving the effect of thermal radiation and the presence of heat source is in the form of a system of ordinary differential equations. This system of equations is simplified using the differential transform method‐Padé approximant and the resulting equations are solved algebraically. It is observed that the temperature of the coolant does not reach its saturation point faster due to the presence of different base fluids that differ in their thermal conductivity. This helps in maintaining the optimum temperature of the system.
