Abstract
The micropolar nanofluids are the potential liquids that enhance the thermophysical features and ability of heat transportation instead of base liquids. Alumina and Titania nanoparticles are mixed in a micropolar fluid. The impact of convective boundary condition is also examined with assisting and opposing flows of both nanofluids. The main objective of this study is to investigate mixed convective flow and heat transfer of micropolar nanofluids across a cylinder in a saturated porous medium. Non-similar variables are used to make the governing equations dimensionless. The local similar and non-similar solutions are obtained by using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method of seventh order. The impacts of various embedded variables on the flow and heat transfer of micropolar nanofluids are investigated and interpreted graphically. It is demonstrated that the skin friction and heat transfer rates depend on solid volume fraction of nanoparticles, Biot number, mixed convection, and material parameters.
