Abstract
The heat and mass relocation properties of magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convective viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid flow induced by an extending spinning disk under the effect of entropy generation, thermal radiation, convective condition, velocity, and concentration slips has been investigated in this study. For hybrid nanofluid, the amalgamation of aluminum nitride and alumina nanoparticles embedded in carboxymethyl cellulose with a volume mass concentration of 0.0%–0.4% is considered for the study. The acquired system of partial differential equations from the intended problem is translated into ordinary differential equations employing resemblance conversion and solved by the Galerkin finite element approach. The main effects of the governing constraints on the velocity field, temperature dispersion, concentration, Bejan number, entropy production, skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number were detailed and depicted in graphs and tables. The results show that snowballing in viscoelastic constraint and volume fraction of solid non-sized particles of and AlN can be used to control fluid flow speed. Also, it is observed from the result that an increment in the magnetic field parameter causes a decline in the velocity field. However, the increase in magnetic field constraint and volume fraction of solid non-sized particles of and AlN causes an upsurge in temperature distribution. Entropy generation in the system can also be regulated by using a higher volume fraction of aluminum nitride and alumina nanoparticles. This numerical and theoretical investigation is more useful in bio-viscoelastic fluids, advanced technology, and industry.

1. Introduction
The fundamental issue that arises in the heat transfer process in many advanced industries and technologies is low thermal conductivity. As a result, researchers are looking for a groundbreaking solution to improve the thermal competence of liquids. As solutions, they have presented a variety of mechanisms. Accordingly, Choi and Eastman [1] have proposed the use of nano-sized () particles in conventional fluids and coined the term “nanofluid” to describe them. Nanofluids are widely used in modern industries and technologies such as nanotechnology, biotechnology, electromechanical systems, modern drug delivery systems, paint and nuclear schemes, electronics device cooling, and lubrication, among others. Later, researchers such as [2], [3], [4] have studied the problems associated with nanofluids theoretically and numerically through various aspects of flow geometries, concluding that heat transfer performance improves as the volume fraction of nanoparticles increases. Recently, the attention of investigators is increasing from day to day towards investigating a new class of nanofluid, which is a so-called hybrid nano-liquid, due to its ability to offset any shorcomings of mono nano-fluid by mixing at least two different kinds of nanoparticles into the ordinary fluid to improve the heat relocation. For instance, Hamid et al. [5] investigated the heat relocation properties of TiO2–SiO2/water hybrid nanoparticles and discovered that the maximum rate of heat transfer augmentation is 22.1% at a volumetric fraction of nanoparticles of 3.0%. In addition, Ashorynejad [6] investigated the thermal proficiency improvement by hybrid nanofluid in an open hollow, indicating that heat transfer performance improves as the volumetric fraction of nanoparticles increases. Furthermore, a summary of the heat relocation assets of mono and hybrid nanofluids was presented by Bumataria et al. [7]. Likewise, Sadaf and Abdelsalam [8] theoretically described the heat relocation assets of Ag–Al2O3/blood hybrid nanofluid in an area bounded by two concentric circles. They also discovered that brick, platelet, and cylinder-shaped nanoparticles have features similar to the trapped bolus. Moreover, Tlili et al. [9] numerically investigated the heat conveyance competency of CuO–MgO/methanol hybrid nanofluid across an uneven extending sheet and found that the CuO-MgO/methanol combination is an effective insulator. Tassaddiq et al. [10] investigated the heat and mass transmission of a CNT – Fe3O4/water hybrid nanofluid flow formed by a spinning disk, concluding that the heat and mass transfer rate is improved by the combination of CNTs and Fe3O4/water nanoparticles in water. Lund et al. [11] studied the MHD 3D flow of Al2O3–Cu hybrid nanoparticles over a nonlinear shrinking surface and found that the heat transfer rate for the hybrid nanofluid was higher than for the viscous fluid and simple nanofluid. Abdel-Nour et al. [12] also looked at the effects of entropy formation on an Al2O3–Cu/H2O hybrid nano-liquid in an absorbent media. ElZahar et al. [13] investigated Al2O3–Cu/water hybrid-nanoparticles over a horizontal circular cylinder, concluding that Cu-water has a higher heat transfer rate than hybrid nanofluid and Al2O3/H2O. In a permeable canal, Eid and Nafe [14] investigated magneto Fe3O4–Cu/EG hybrid nanofluid flow and found that the increase of Fe3O4/EG nanoparticle concentration enhances the heat transfer rate of the hybrid nanofluid in a shrinkable case. Zainal et al. [15] also investigated the flow of Al2O3–Cu/H2O hybrid nanofluid across expanding and shrinking surfaces, and indicated that an upsurge attribution in the heat transfer rate is observed resulting from the increment of Biot number.
Flow across a spinning disk has a significant appliance in mechanical, architectural, civil, and marine engineering, computer storage devices, geothermal industry, and aeronautical science [16], [17] and such alike flows were early studied by Karman [18]. In addition, [19], [20], [21], [22], [23], [24] have identified more research on fluid flow across a rotating disk. Yin et al. [25] investigated the heat displacement of Cu, Al2O3, and CuO/ nanofluid generated by a spinning disk. Micropolar nanofluid flow induced by a spinning disk was examined by Zemedu and Ibrahim [26].
Heat relocation in non-Newtonian (Visco-elastic) fluids is particularly relevant because of its practical applications in food processing, oil recovery, and flow through filtering media. As a result, [27], [28], [29] investigated the flow of viscoelastic fluid with various flow geometries, and they summarized how much the flow of visco-elastic fluid influenced heat and mass relocation. Mahat et al. [30] examined the flow of visco-elastic nanofluid above a horizontal circular cylinder as well. Khan et al. [31] investigated the swirling flow of visco-elastic nanofluid created by a spinning disk.
Heat transmission effects with entropy creation have been extensively studied since Bejan's seminal work [32], in which he proposed a method to optimize system degradation and heat transfer effects with entropy formation. The influence of entropy production and an induced magnetic field on the flow of pseudoplastic nanofluid across an elastic surface was examined by Hou et al. [33]. They concluded that increasing the Brinkmann number increases the rate of entropy generation. In addition, Vaidya et al. [34] investigated the influence of homogeneous and heterogeneous responses on the peristaltic flow of MHD Jeffrey fluid with entropy generation, finding that the temperature variance constraint increases the fluid's entropy generation. The impact of heat and mass distribution on entropy generation due to the MHD flow of nanofluid across a rotating frame was investigated by Mabood et al. [35]. They discovered that the rate of entropy generation and Bejan number depend upon the magnetic field and the Eckert number. For further information on the linked idea, readers can refer to Ref [36], [37], [38], [39], [40].
As can be seen from all of the above-mentioned works, the problem of entropy generation in the radiative magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convective flow of hybrid nanofluid caused by a spinning disk has not been investigated so far. This investigation aims to examine the entropy generation in the radiative magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convective flow of viscoelastic AlN– hybrid nanofluid across a spinning disk with the convective condition, velocity, and concentration slips. The non-Newtonian (Visco-elastic) fluid model and the Hamilton Crosser type hybrid nanofluid model consisting of AlN–Al2O3/(CMC-water) were also considered in the study. The effects of the most important governing constraints on centrifugal and tangential motion, temperature dispersion, concentration dispersion, Bejan number, entropy production, skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number were detailed and represented in graphs and tables. Also, the solution to the designed problem in the study was obtained by the Galerkin finite element approach [41].
2. Physical interpretation and modeling
2.1. Physical interpretation
Undertake the steady laminar flow of an electrically conducting and an incompressible hybrid nanofluid induced by a spinning disk with an angular velocity Ω around the z-axis as displayed in Fig. 1. To inspect heat relocation attributes, the visco-elastic fluid model, mixed convection flow, entropy generation, thermal radiation, convective condition, velocity, and concentration slips are considered for the study. The amalgamation of AlN and Al2O3 is chosen as the hybrid nanofluid and CMC-water is preferred as the base fluid. The cylindrical coordinate system () is chosen with the corresponding velocity . Assume the disk is situated at z = 0 and the flow of hybrid nanofluid is confined in the semi-space and the magnetic field strength Bo is applied perpendicular to the fluid flow. The induced magnetic field and electric field effects are not incorporated under low magnetic Reynolds number assumptions. For the study, the convective heating mode is considered, and for this reason, the temperature and concentration at the surface, respectively, is assumed as and , whereas and respectively, are considered free stream temperature and concentration.

In the current investigation, the non-dimensional equations labeled in (9)–(12) with matching boundary conditions in (13) are numerically solved through the Galerkin finite element method. The upshot offered in the current study is acquired with the default values of . Also, for the cases of nanofluid (AlN+ viscoelastic fluid), viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid ( viscoelastic fluid), in that order, we assume and , whereas for only viscoelastic fluid, we presume .
4.1. Effect of Grashof number
The role of the Grashof number on the radial and tangential velocity, temperature, concentration, entropy generation, and Bejan number is confirmed in Fig. 2–Fig. 7. As witnessed in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the velocity along the radial and tangential gets bigger for higher values of the Grashof number (). Physically, improvement in tends to increase the force of buoyancy, which prompts the movement of both the viscoelastic AlN–Al2O3 hybrid nanofluid and the viscoelastic AlN nanofluid at the side of the rotating surface. The temperature and concentration distributions of the viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid (Al2O viscoelastic fluid) and the viscoelastic nanofluid ( viscoelastic fluid) are reduced as Gr increases. Physically, the buoyancy force fabricated in the flow region owing to a high value of Gr dominates the inertia force that upsurges the heat relocation rate. It means that when the Grashof number increases, the molecular motion of the fluid elements reduces, resulting in a decrease in temperature dissemination throughout the flow field. Due to this fact, the finer in Gr causes a major diminution in temperature distribution, as observed in Fig. 4. In the same way, an increase in the values of the Grashof number has the tendency to increase the mass buoyancy effect. This gives rise to an increase in the induced flow and thereby decreases concentration, as seen in Fig. 5. It is observable from Fig. 6 that amplification in Gr causes augmentation in NG. Intensification in Gr produces high viscous dissipation because of the increase in the change of velocity that is inclined to boost the entropy generation (NG). Consequently, an increase in the value of Gr generates the rate of entropy generation (NG) at a high level close to the wall of the rotating disk. One can perceive from Fig. 7 that the Bejan number shrinks in Gr. Physically, intensification in the Gr tends to a decrease in Bejan number inside the region of flow for the reason that a reduction in irreversibility has happened because of fluid friction.

4.2. Effect of viscoelastic parameter
Fig. 8 demonstrates that intensification in the viscoelastic parameter () causes a diminution in the radial velocity. Physically, the tensile stress created by viscoelasticity resists fluid motion, which is why the velocity of both the (AlN+Al2O viscoelastic fluid) viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid and the (AlN+ viscoelastic fluid) viscoelastic nanofluid is reduced. Therefore, the flow of fluid assets in the viscoelastic fluid can be constrained by persuading the change in the viscoelastic parameter.

4.3. Effect of volumetric fraction of nanoparticles
Fig. 9–Fig. 14 exemplify the disparity of (1% to 4% vol. fraction of alumina) and (1% to 4% vol. fraction of aluminum nitride) on velocities along centrifugal and tangential, temperature dissemination, dissemination of concentration, entropy generation, and Bejan number, correspondingly. Noticed that and are dwindling against the mounting value of and . Physically, the finer in causes the shrinking comportment of the momentum frontier stratum. Furthermore, the viscosity is enhanced in the flow of (AlN– viscoelastic fluid) by intensifying from 1% to 4% vol. fraction of particles stretch advanced resistance to the fluid motion. Evidently, such a situation happened due to the incidences of Al2O3 and AlN solid nanoparticles in CMC-water as is seen in Fig. 9 and Fig. 10. However, from Fig. 11 it is illustrated that is improved by escalating in and . Besides, as seen in Fig. 12 that escalation in and tends to reduce the concentration distribution of (AlN– viscoelastic fluid) and CMC-water based AlN nanofluid. This phenomenon emerged because a massive volume fraction of Al2O3 () and AlN () is embedded into the viscoelastic fluid which augments the random motion of nanoparticles. The collision rate of the nanoparticles increases throughout this random motion, lowering the nanoparticle concentration. Also, it is very appealing to perceive that the entropy production of the system is lesser in favor of a larger volume fraction () for Al2O3 and AlN nanoparticles as seen in Fig. 13. Furthermore, using the finer of and it is possible to control the entropy production in the system. However, from Fig. 14, the opposite tendency is observed in the Bejan number with the varying values of and . The same to the preceding clarification in favor of the Bejan number (Be), the graph of the entropy production close to the wall as large as a consequence of the inertial effects impose to an augment in the fluid friction effect and thus, Bejan number (Be) becomes higher for both (AlN– viscoelastic fluid) viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid and (AlN+ viscoelastic fluid) viscoelastic nanofluid.

4.4. Effects of Brinkmann number
The disparity of Br against NG and Be is displayed in Fig. 15 and Fig. 16. A magnification in Brinkmann number (0.3 ≤ Br ≤ 3.4) improves the NG owing to viscous heating of the liquid while it shrinks the Be because heat irreversibility from viscous dissipation dominates over heat irreversibility.

4.5. Effects of radiation parameter
Fig. 17 and Fig. 18 display the impact of Rd on NG and Be. It is observed from the figures that both NG and Bejan number are amplified with intensification in Rd in the range of (0.1 ≤ Rd ≤ 1.8). Physically, the excessive temperature produced in the flow region due to high Rd causes high disorderedness in the system. Accordingly, an increment in the entropy production rate and Bejan number is observed.

4.6. Effects of magnetic field parameter
Fig. 19–Fig. 23 show the effect of the magnetic field parameter on the radial velocity, tangential velocity, temperature, entropy generation rate, and Bejan number. As the magnetic field parameter M is increased, the radial and tangential velocities decrease significantly, as shown in Fig. 19 and Fig. 20. In reality, the Lorentz force is significantly correlated with the magnetic field, with bigger magnetic fields having a stronger Lorentz force and smaller magnetic fields having a weaker Lorentz force. The Lorentz force swells the frictional force, which acts as a retarding force, and as a result, a reduction in the radial and tangential velocities is observed. However, an increase in the magnetic field parameter tends to increase the temperature distribution, as seen in Fig. 21. Increasing the magnetic field parameter increases the Lorentz force, which results in Joule heating (or Lorentz heating) in the energy equation, which can be used as an extra heat source for the flow system. Manifestly, as seen in Fig. 22, the strengthening in M imposes a rise in the NG. It is rather well-matched with physical laws because the enrichment of Lorentz force due to augment in M results in more friction, which imposes an increase in entropy fabrication rate. However, as shown in Fig. 23, an increase in M generally results in a decrease in the Bejan number. Physically, the Bejan number is a non-dimensional number indicating the fraction of entropy production owed to heat transport to the whole entropy production. Classically, Bejan number presumes values flanked by 0 to 1. For Bejan number is very near to 1, the entropy production owing to heat relocation dominates and thus a diminution in (Be) is observed.

4.8. Skin friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers
Table 4 shows the numerical variation of , and on . One can observe from Table 4 that strengthening in is observed in all the cases of viscoelastic AlN– hybrid nanofluid, viscoelastic AlN-nanofluid, and viscoelastic fluid for higher in Gr, M, and . Also, this table demonstrates that skin friction generated due to the viscoelastic AlN– hybrid nanofluid is much stronger than that for regular viscoelastic AlN - nanofluid and viscoelastic fluid. This is caused by the inclusion of both AlN and Al2O3 nanoparticles in viscoelastic fluid. However, the reduction in is perceived with amplification in Re and Λ. Thus, skin friction can be controlled by increasing Re and Λ. From Table 5, it is found that for all the cases of viscoelastic AlN– hybrid nanofluid and viscoelastic AlN-nanofluid, the rate of heat relocation amplifies with finer values of Grashof number, and as a consequence, the temperature transportation declines, but, as predicted, only the viscoelastic fluid remains unaffected by the disparity of Gr, Re, M, and Ec. Also, from this table, it is seen that the rate of heat relocation declines with an improvement in Re, Ec, and . Furthermore, the heat transportation rate of AlN– hybrid nanofluid is made stronger than viscoelastic AlN-nanofluid and viscoelastic fluid. This outcome demonstrates that the heat transportation rate is finer in the hybrid nanofluid when compared to the regular nanofluid and fluid. That's why utilizing hybrid nanofluid as a replacement for the nanofluid is more desirable in thermal administration systems. As explained in Table 6, intensification values of Gr, Le, and augment the mass transportation rate whereas, reduction in mass transportation rate is observed for the case of intensification in Re and M.

5. Conclusions
Entropy generation in the radiative magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convective flow of viscoelastic hybrid nanofluid across a spinning disk under the effect of thermal radiation, convective conditions, velocity, and concentration slips has been examined. The study considers a mixture of aluminum nitride and alumina nanoparticles embedded in carboxymethyl cellulose with a volume mass concentration of 0.0% to 0.4% for hybrid nanofluid. The obtained system of partial differential equations from the conservation of momentum, energy, and nanoparticle concentration were transfigured into ordinary differential equations and then solved by the Galerkin finite element approach in Matlab. The effects of various parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration, entropy production, and the Bejan number have been investigated. The following are the key findings:
-
1.
The flow becomes more vigorous when the Grashof number is raised.
-
2.
Centrifugal and tangential velocities can be well-ordered by snowballing in a viscoelastic constraint
-
3.
A greater Grashof number can control the temperature of the fluid.
-
4.
The temperature transport of hybrid nanofluid is higher than that of mono nanofluid and base fluid.
-
5.
A reduction in concentration dissemination is witnessed for value-added and .
-
6.
With strengthening in Br, Rd, Gr, and M, the entropy production rate is improved.
-
7.
The entropy production rate in the system can be controlled by adding and .
-
8.
Bejan number (Be) can be improved via higher alumina and AlN volume fractions.
