Abstract
We considered the magnetized micro polar fluid with hybrid nanomaterial flow over a curved stretching surface. We discussed the effects of single wall carbon nanotube and multiwall carbon nanotube with base fluids (water and propylene glycol). Under the flow assumptions, we developed the mathematical model and applied the boundary layer approximations to reduce the system of partial differential equations. Further, the suitable similarity transformations are applied on the partial differential equations to make dimensionless system. The dimensionless system solved by means of numerical scheme via bvp4c shooting methods. Involving the dimensionless physical parameters effects are highlighted in the form of graphs and tables. Additionally, significant physical quantities i.e. Nusselt number, Couple stress coefficient and Skin friction coefficient are also presented and evaluated numerically. These results are more important which may use in the field of engineering and industrial.
