Soret and radiation influence on Magneto Casson fluid flow over a non-linear inclined sheet in a Forchheimer porous medium with viscous dissipation
Abstract
This article emphasis on the impacts of Soret and viscous dissipation on Magneto Casson fluid flow past a non-linear inclined sheet in a porous Forchheimer medium with thermal radiation. In this mathematical model, the impacts of chemical reaction, heat source/sink, velocity and thermal slips are also examined. The velocity, temperature, and concentration of the inclined surface are presumed to exhibit nonlinear fluctuations with respect to distance. The partial differential equations controlling the investigation are transformed into non-dimensional ordinary differential equations that include a set of physical factors. By implementing the Keller Box approach, the resultant equations are numerically solved. As the Soret parameter rises, the concentration profile increases the coefficient of skin friction values falls and Nusselt number values rise with the Soret parameter. The temperature rises for the increasing values of Ec. Numerical data is also used to analyze the outlines in the changing rates of thermal and mass transport as well as the drag force factor. The results of the current investigation indicate that the rising magnetic and suction components have reduced fluid motion while enhancing thermal profiles. Furthermore, the suction component adversely affects both temperature and concentration gradients. In this perspective, these factors have a substantial influence on numerous engineering applications, including the nuclei of nuclear reactors, the production of polymers, metal layers, paper sheets, and the biochemistry industry. To advance and enhance the computational analysisfor this work, the computational findings are corroborated by comparing specific instances of the current research with those from previous studies, yielding strong concordance.
