  • Investigated MHD flow and heat transfer characteristics of non-Newtonian (Casson and Oldroyd-8) fluids in porous and wire coating systems.
  • Analyzed the impact of temperature-dependent viscosity, thermal radiation, and chemical reactions on fluid behavior.
  • Compared Reynolds’ and Vogel’s viscosity models to assess their effects on magnetized porous flows.
  • Studied hybrid and ternary nanofluid systems (Cu–Al₂O₃/H₂O) to evaluate enhanced heat and mass transfer performance.
  • Highlighted the role of nanoparticle suspension, magnetic fields, and porous media in improving convective transport phenomena.
