Abstract Sodium-alginate (SA) based nanofluids represent a new generation of fluids with improved performances in terms
of heat transfer. This work examines the influence of the nanoparticle shape on a non–Newtonian viscoplastic
Cu–nanofluid pertaining to this category. In particular, a stretching/shrinking sheet subjected to a transverse magnetic field is considered. The proposed Cu–nanofluid consists of four different nanoparticles having different
shapes, namely bricks, cylinders, platelets, and blades dispersed in a mixture of sodium alginate with Prandtl
number Pr = 6.45. Suitable similarity transformations are employed to reduce non–linear PDEs into a system
of ODEs and these equations and related boundary conditions… More >
