Abstract

The mixed convection flow of a hybrid nanofluid in an inclined channel with top wall-slip due to wall stripe and constant heat flux conditions is studied. Explicit analytical solutions are given to the flow velocity, temperature, as well as the pressure in non-dimensional forms. The flow regime domain, the velocity and temperature distributions, and the dependence of various physical parameters such as the hybrid nanoparticle volume fractions, the wall-slip, the Grashof number, the Reynolds number, and the inclined angle are analyzed and discussed. It is found that the hybrid nanofluid delays the appearance of flow reversal on both walls and the wall-slip postpones the flow reversal on the top wall.
