Abstract
The influence of the magnetic field on (50:50)-based nanofluid over a heated and spinning vertical cone is deliberated. Water: ethylene glycol (50:50) mixture-based nanofluid with and as nanoparticles exhibits higher thermal conductivity enhancement. Heat transfer analysis for the spinning vertical cone with a prescribed surface temperature was investigated. The influence of magnetic parameter, spin parameter, and nanoparticle volume fraction on tangential velocity profile, spin velocity profile, and thermal profile is analyzed. The results accord strongly with the findings of previous research works in the special cases. Computation shows that as magnetic parameter increases, the thicknesses of hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers decrease and increase, respectively. The addition of nanoparticles ( and ) effectively enhances the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number.
Introduction
In this industrialized world, the heat transfer process plays a significant role in upgrading the efficiency of industrial applications. To accomplish this global industrialization, in 1995 Choi devised a new progressive class of heat transfer fluids, known as nanofluids (Choi and Eastman, 1995), in which the characteristics of both nanoparticles and base fluid become efficient. Heat transfer in nanofluid is more proficient than in common fluids. Preparation of nanofluids is not simply the mixture of solids and liquids but requires beneficial methods, as elaborated in Xuan and Li (2000), which presents the procedure for nanofluid preparation. Choosing the nanoparticle and base fluid wisely leads to excellent results depending on the need, as discussed in Usri et al. (2015). Recent research works have been implemented using a novel category of fluids known as nanofluids, which have brought changes widely, including in the industrial, engineering, and medical fields (Vishnu Ganesh et al., 2014; Abdul Hakeem et al., 2017). Different geometrical shapes give different results, including cone and wedge (Anantha Kumar et al. (2018), rotating disk (Gholinia et al. (2019), and vertical cone geometric shapes (CemEce, 2005; Raju and Sandeep, 2016). Nanofluids are the best solutions for heat transfer fluids since they have good thermal performance. Therefore, researchers are proposing suitable models. In this regard, three methods are employed for improving thermal performance (Maleki et al., 2020). To adopt nanofluid applications in daily life, and to increase nanofluid’s performance in several applications, nanofluid stability is a critical factor discussed in (Chakraborty and Kumar Panigrahi, 2020). To enhance heat transfer, comparison among different nanofluids for different parameters has been conducted (Dinarvand and Pop, 2017; Aghamajidi et al., 2018). Nanofluid applications have been used in multidisciplinary research. There is a broad range of utilizations in the areas of microalgal cultivation, friction reduction, magnetic sealing, reactor–heat exchange, optical and biomedical applications, nanofluid detergent, electronics cooling, and heating buildings (Vargas-Estrada et al., 2020; Rafiq et al., 2021). With progress in nuclear energy, nanoparticles are also used as coolants in nuclear power plants (Hamidreza Arab BafraniNoori-kalkhoran et al., 2020), in enhancing oil recovery, nano-refrigerants, and nano-lubricants (de Carvalho et al., 2020; SahbanAlnarabiji and Husein, 2020; Salari and Seid Mahdi Jafari, 2020; Mallikarjuna et al., 2021), and in turning and grinding processes (SaswatKhatai et al., 2020). In addition to nanofluid, the flow of hybrid nanofluid across a stretched surface has recently been studied (Aly and Pop, 2019; Aly and Pop, 2020a; Aly and Ebaid, 2020; Aly and Pop, 2020b; Aly et al., 2021; Ahmad et al., 2022; Aly et al., 2022; Arafat et al., 2022; Reddy et al., 2022; Usafzai et al., 2022).
Using a water–ethylene glycol (50:50) combination as the base fluid and and as the nanoparticles, we explored the natural convection flow around a heated vertical spinning cone under the influence of a magnetic field.
The aspect of the present work is listed below.
➢ Water–ethylene glycol (50:50) mixture is considered a base fluid with Pr = 29.86.
➢ and are considered to be non-magnetic and magnetic nanoparticles, respectively, which are in thermal equilibrium with base fluid.
➢ The geometric cone is used for fluid flow as shown in Figure 1.
➢ The effect of viscous dissipation, the resistance heating effect of the fluid, and the slip effect are regarded as negligible.

Results and discussion
The effects of spin parameter , nanoparticle volume fraction , and magnetic parameter M on tangential velocity profile FI(y), swirl velocity profile G(y), and temperature profile H(y) for the case of prescribed surface temperature were plotted.
The tangential velocity profile decreases as the range of magnetic parameters increases. This is because a magnetic field creates a drag force, known as the Lorentz force, in an electrically conducting fluid. There is a dip in the velocity profile due to this significant resistive force acting counter to the direction of fluid flow. As a result, as M becomes stronger, the hydrodynamic boundary layer thickness becomes thinner. has higher tangential velocity than . In the case of swirl velocity, as the magnetic parameter increases, swirl velocity decreases. has higher swirl velocity than , as described in Figure 2

Boundary layer behaviour for the case of prescribed surface temperature
To overcome drag force, the fluid must do some additional work, which is transformed into thermal energy and leads to an increase in the temperature of the fluid. has a higher temperature than . Therefore, as the strength of M increases, the thickness of the thermal boundary value rises, as described in Figure 3. From the physical point of view, as the nanoparticles transfer or dissipate heat, they cause a larger thermal boundary layer thickness and, finally, the intensification in the temperature of the fluid.
FIGURE 3

Influence of M on H(y) when ϕ = 0.01, = 1, and Pr = 29.86.
As the spin parameter appears in the momentum equation, the effect of spin parameter is more in this equation, and increased values of the spin parameter dynamically promote tangential velocity. has higher tangential velocity than . Swirl velocity drops as spin parameter increases near the surface of the cone, as shown in Figure 4.
FIGURE 4

Characteristics of on FI(y) and G(y), when ϕ = 0.01, M = 1, and Pr = 29.86.
Temperature is reduced as spin parameter increases. Therefore, there is reduction in the thickness of the thermal boundary layer for varying magnitudes of spin parameter. Fe3O4 nanoparticles are compressed more toward the surface than are the Al2O3 nanoparticles as the spin parameter rises, as indicated in Figure 5.
FIGURE 5

Impact of on H(y), when ϕ = 0.01, M = 1, and Pr = 29.86.
The influence of nanoparticle volume fraction on tangential and swirl velocity profile is depicted in Figure 6. As the value of ϕ rises, the tangential velocity of the flow increases. The opposite behavior is examined in the case of swirl velocity profile.

In Figure 7, the influence of the Al2O3 and Fe3O4 nanoparticle volume fraction for thermal distribution is plotted. Analysis of this plot showed that the temperature distribution builds up by enhancing the volume fraction of Al2O3.

Conclusion
The numerical solution was achieved using the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method combined with boundary conditions and shooting methods to the non-dimensional ODEs. The following graph-related points are noteworthy:
➢ Intensification of the extent of spin parameter dynamically promotes the tangential velocity, and has a higher tangential velocity than .
➢ Higher magnetic parameters decrease the momentum transport of hydrodynamic flow and accelerate thermal transport in the presence of (50:50) mixture.
➢ Higher spin parameter reduces the thermal profile of nanofluid.
➢ The tangential velocity of Fe3O4 is shown to be greater than for the Al2O3 nanoparticle.
➢ It is worth mentioning that the present outcomes are highly compatible with solutions obtained in previous research for the special case.
