Abstract
• The study analyzes hybrid nanoparticles in MHD peristaltic stenotic blood flow. • Cu-Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles form a hybrid suspension, improving blood flow properties. • Stenosis and scaling simplify the nonlinear PDEs using perturbation techniques. • Parameters like velocity, shear stress, and Nusselt number are thoroughly studied. • Hybrid nanoparticles enhance velocity, reduce stress, and help stenosed arteries. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of hybrid nanoparticles in improving magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic blood flow in stenotic arteries. Hybrid nanoparticles combining MHD processes and peristaltic motion show promise for increasing blood flow through constricted arteries. To evaluate the impact of nanoparticles on blood flow parameters, researchers use theoretical modelling and analytical solutions. Incorporating copper and aluminium oxide nanoparticles (Cu-Al 2 O 3 ) into blood, leading to the formation of an ionic solution, is a crucial step in creating a homogeneous hybrid blood suspension. The mathematical model uses approximations of the stenosis and non-dimensional parameters for a mild stenosis scenario to simplify the underlying coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. Analytical solutions for various blood flow parameters such as velocity, temperature, stream function, wall shear stress, Nusselt number, and flow resistance impedance are obtained using the perturbation technique. This study visually analyzes how different physiological variables affect arterial blood flow characteristics. The heat conductivity of blood is an essential aspect of preserving one's sustenance, which is largely determined by the concentration of hybrid nanoparticles. A streamlined pattern depicts the direction of blood flow within an artery. This research demonstrates that the adverse effects of vascular stenosis can be mitigated by using hybrid nanoparticles. In order to aid narrowed arteries, these nanoparticles lessen wall shear stress, boost axial flow speed, and enhance the velocity profile.
