Magneto-free-convection flow of a rate type fluid over an inclined plate with heat and mass flux
Abstract
On a porous layered inclined plate, magneto-free-convection flow of a rate type fluid is investigated. The problem is modeled as natural convection for oscillating and general movements of an inclined plate moving in a magnetized medium with a slanted external magnetic field that is either stationary or moving in tandem with the plate. The plate is subjected to a symmetric temperature field with double-sided thermal operation. Constant concentration, first order chemical reaction, and thermal conductivity as a general feature of time are used in heat transfer measurement. On the velocity of the fluid, the impact of varying plate angles with the vertical as well as the slanted angle of the magnetic field with the plate are studied. The motion of the plate and temperature distribution in specific situations was discussed. We can retrieve many results by changing the values of the functions and parameters in our general solutions, including the related results for the viscous fluid from the literature as a limiting case. As a result, the matter of identical models is no longer an issue. Furthermore, graphical software is used to do parametric analysis on fluid dynamics.
