Exact Analysis of MHD Casson Fluid Flow Past an Exponentially Accelerated Vertical Plate in a Porous Medium with Radiation Absorption, Heat Generation, and Diffusion-Thermo Effects with Thermal and Solutal Ramped Conditions

Abstract

The current investigation aims at to examine the effect of radiation absorption, heat generation and Dufour number on MHD Casson fluid flow past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate in a porous medium with chemical reaction. The governing equations for momentum, energy and concentration are solved by implementing the Laplace transformation method. Skin friction, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer expressions are also extracted and depicted in tabular form. Investigation simulates that Casson parameter diminished the fluid velocity, whereas energy flux due to a mass concentration gradient improves the temperature field of the flow problem. In addition to this, temperature field is observed to be developed under the influence of radiation absorption and heat generation. Furthermore, the effects of different non-dimensional parameters on velocity field, temperature fluid and species concentration are exhibited graphically.
