Abstract
The combined effect of wedge angle and melting energy transfer on the tangent hyperbolic magnetohydrodynamics nanofluid flow across a
permeable wedge is numerically evaluated. Electronic gadgets produce an excessive amount of heat while in operation, so tangent hyperbolic
nanofluid (THNF) is frequently used to cool them. THNF has the potential to dissipate heat more efficiently, thereby lowering the possibility of
excessive heat and malfunctioning components. The effects of thermal radiation and heat source/sink are also examined on the flow of THNF.
The flow has been formulated in the form of PDEs, which are numerically computed through the MATLAB solver BVP4c. The numerical
results of BVP4c are relatively compared to the published work for validity purposes. It has been detected that the results are accurate and
reliable. Furthermore, from the graphical results, it has been perceived that the rising impact of the Weissenberg number accelerates the
velocity and thermal profile. The effect of the power-law index parameter drops the fluid temperature, but enhances the velocity curve. The
variation in the wedge angle boosts the shearing stress and energy propagation rate, whereas the increment of Wi declines both the energy
transfer rate and skin friction.
