There's one significant difference between Mjolnir in Thor: Ragnarok and TDW/AOU.

Not bigger!
You'll have to be more specific about the patterns.
If no one notices, I'll post the difference tomorrow.

The black lining near the bottom of the hammer(across the otherwise blank part of it) has been removed.

And is that significant? Or is it just a minor difference between, say, the hero, stunt or CGI hammer?

There is a line there, it's just straight now instead of flaring upwards in the middle.
As Angelus Lupus has said, the difference could be due to a stunt or CGI hammer, and the Hero hammer could have different details. We will have to wait and see. They have made tweaks to the hammer for every film, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some new things happening. I see that the line mentioned has changed, and the runes are deeper.. but "significant?" Maybe not the correct word.
I must be missing whatever it is.

The Celtic knots pattern is different.

Yes! Mr Mold Maker is right. The line near the bottom of the side panels is now straight rather than kinked in the middle. Everything else is identical to AOU and The Dark World (which were the only films so far that did not have any changes between them), down to the number of handle rings, dimensions, and runes. The Celtic knot pattern is actually the same as TDW/AOU, though different from Avengers and the original Thor.
Now while it's possible that it's just a CGI hammer, it seems a bit unlikely since the CGI hammer in Thor: The Dark World was the same as the real prop, both of which have the kinked line, not a straight line:
(CGI)
(Real prop)
So is it possible it's just a stunt/CGI hammer? I suppose it cannot be ruled out, but this was not used for CGI hammers before, so they clearly had an accurate CGI hammer for TDW already.
So between TDW and AOU there actually were not any changes to the runes, the hammer dimensions, the pommel cap, or the two engraved lines on the bottom of the hammer (which are each different from both Avengers and Thor 1), but this side line is different.
So I think that's significant - at least for people wanting to make faithful replicas.

Do I not get any credit for this? :lol

Credit given! Mr Mold Maker pointed out that the line was actually there, just straight now, so I called him out, but you definitely spotted the difference as well!

I am familiar enough to tell you confidently that neither the side runes nor the pommel runes have been changed. I have 3D modeled them both and carefully studied screenshots from The Avengers: AOU, Thor: TDW, as well as the Making Of video where it's shown how Mjolnir was 3D printed for Thor: TDW.
