Description
Summary:In this study, we conducted numerical simulations to investigate a novel approach for revolutionizing agricultural methods. The focus was on combining sun-powered tractors with Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in the flow of a tetra hybrid nanofluid (TETHNF). The TETHNF consists of Magnetite (Fe3O4), Silver (Ag), carbon nanotubes (CNT) nanoparticles suspended in Ethylene Glycol (EG). The utilization of TETHNF increases thermal transport properties, leading to intensified energy efficiency in agricultural equipment. Solar thermal radiation, entropy generation, heat generation, porous medium phenomena are adapted in analyzing the flow problem. Appropriate technique for nondimensionalization is employed to simplify the governing flow equations into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). To solve the modeled equations, the Galerkin approach is utilized. The results indicate that the fluid temperature rises as the radiation factor and thermal Biot number increase.
