This paper examines the impacts of a nonlinearly expanding sheet on velocity, heat and mass transport for a Suttery hybrid nanoliquid (mixture of Sutterby fluid and Al 2 O 3 and Cu). The zero-mass flux concentration and convective boundary conditions are considered. Nondimensionalization of governing equations may be achieved through similarity conversions. The governing equations are solved utilizing the Optimal Homotopy Analysis Method. Graphs and tables were used to document the effects of different variables. The numerical values for skin friction, Sherwood number and Nusselt number are provided in a table for diverse relevant factors. Comparisons were made to a previous study's findings. The results obtained are in agreement with the findings of the prior study. The outcome is that the occurrence of hybrid nanoparticles ( Al 2 O 3 and Cu) in ethylene glycol liquid enhances its thermal conductivity thereby increasing the thermal boundary layer thickness. The presence of hybrid nanoparticles ( Al 2 O 3 and Cu) in ethylene glycol liquid also increases the momentum boundary layer thickness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
