Mixed Convection Stagnation Point Flow of a Hybrid Nanofluid Past a Permeable Flat Plate with Radiation Effect

This article focuses on the stagnation point flow of hybrid nanofluid towards a flat plate. The cases when the buoyancy forces and the flow are in the opposite direction and the same direction are discussed. The effect of radiation and suction is also taken into account. The similarity transformatio...
