Abstract
The focus of this work is to analyses the radiation and Hall current effect in a hybrid nanofluid with melting heat transfer flowing magneto hydrodynamically across a variable thickness sheet. The mathematical formulation involves a system of partial differential equations (PDEs), which are transformed into Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) through the application of suitable similarity transformation. The MATLAB (9.14) software’s bvp4c approach (Shooting method) performs the numerical calculations. This study highlights the influence of Hall Effect, melting heat rate, and MHD on several flow parameters, such as temperature, fluid velocity, skin friction and Nusselt number distributions. The results are displayed graphically. Hybrid nanofluid and Hall Effect drastically change the flow and temperature properties.
