Interaction of micropolar fluid structure with the porous media in the flow due to a rotating cone

Abstract

A model of heat and mass transfer of two dimensional MHD micropolar fluid over a cone is constructed. Similarity transformation is adopted for the conversion of partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations have been linearized by employing the Newton’s linearization technique and then new sets of equations are discretized using the finite difference method. The impact of non-dimensional parameters is further analyzed and the numerical results for profiles of velocity, temperature and concentration are expressed graphically and the results are discussed in detail. For the higher values of Dufour number, temperature field is enhanced graphically but show the opposite behavior in case of Prandlt number. Furthermore, the micro-rotation parameter show decreasing behavior with the enhancing of magnetic and porosity parameters respectively.
