Abstract
The steady magnetohydrodynamic ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a slender surface under the effects of activation energy, Hall current,
chemical reactions, and a heat source has been reported. A numerical model is developed to increase the rate of energy transfer and boost
the efficiency and outcome of heat energy dissemination for a diverse range of biological applications and commercial uses. The rheological
properties and thermal conductivity of the base fluids are improved by framing an accurate combination of nanoparticles (NPs). The ternary
hybrid nanofluid has been prepared, in the current analysis, by the dispersion of magnesium oxide, titanium dioxide (TiO2), and cobalt ferrite
(CoFe2O4) NPs in the base fluid. The physical phenomena have been expressed in the form of a system of nonlinear PDEs, which are degraded
to a dimensionless system of ODEs through the similarity replacement and numerically solved by employing the MATLAB software package
bvp4c. The graphical and tabular results are estimated for velocity, mass, and energy curves vs distinct physical factors. It has been noticed
that the variation in the magnetic effect enhances the energy profile while the increasing number of ternary nanocomposites (MgO, TiO2, and
CoFe2O4) in water lowers the energy curve. Furthermore, the effect of both Lewis and Peclet numbers weakens the motile microbe’s profile.
