Abstract

Peristaltic flow of hybrid nanofluid inside a duct having sinusoidally advancing boundaries and elliptic cross-section is mathematically investigated. The notable irreversibility effects are also examined in this mathematical research by considering a descriptive entropy analysis. In addition, this work provides a comparison analysis for two distinct nanofluid models: a hybrid model (Cu-Ag/water) and a phase flow model (Cu/water). A comprehensive graphical description is also provided to interpret the physical aspects of this mathematical analysis.
