Özet
Nanosized particles can be administered via distinct routes involving intraperitoneal and intravenous injection, pulmonary inhalation, and oral administration. Nanosized particles have been advanced as efficient target-specific strategies for the treatment of cancer, acting as agents and also acting as nanocarriers. Over the last few years, various kinds of nanosized particles have been developed based on several components involving silica oxides, nanocrystals, carbon, metal oxides, polymers, quantum dots, lipids, and dendrimers, together with enhancing a variety of newly developed materials. The focus of this study is to analyze the effect of dissimilar shapes of nano-sized particles on fluid flow past a stretching surface that is permeable. For this purpose, a micropolar nanofluid with a base fluid of water is considered. Both spherical (sphere) and nonspherical (lamina)-shaped nanoparticles of copper are used to study the enhancement of thermal conductivity. The highly complex governing partial differential equations of the problem are converted into ODEs via similarity transformations. The converted ODEs are tackled with the help of the homotopy analysis method. Our study shows that the performance of nonspherical(lamina) nanoparticles is better than spherical(sphere) nanoparticles in the disturbance of fluid motion, microrotation, and energy.
