Abstract
/kerosene oil) hybrid ferrofluid. Mass and heat transport mechanisms are scrutinized with the execution of activation energy, convective constraints, Joule heating, exponential heat sources, and thermal radiation. Suitable ansatzes are utilized to achieve the dimensionless pattern of the equations that regulate the problem. To numerically explore the dimensionless equations, a powerful bvp4c strategy is implemented. On behalf of both considered models, the characteristics of hybrid ferrofluid relative to pertinent parameters are graphically investigated and comparatively analyzed. This study ensures that the improved Yamada-Ota model yields more proficient outcomes in comparison to the Xue model. Moreover, the concentration field demonstrates an escalating trend with the enhanced activation energy parameter.
