Entropy generation analysis and hydrothermal optimization of ternary hybrid nanofluid flow suspended in polymer over curved stretching surface

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids, 2023
This paper examined the flow of nanofluids on a curved stretched surface. Three nanoparticles Go (graphene oxide), Cu (Copper) and CeO2 (ceria) and polymer as the basic fluid were used in this investigation.
