Analysis of buoyancy driven flow of a reactive heat generating third grade fluid in a parallel channel having convective boundary conditions

Abstract

The study investigated the impacts of buoyancy force and internal heat source on a reactive third grade fluid flow within parallel channel. The results obtained for the coupled equations regulating the flow of fluid which are strongly nonlinear are secured by applying Adomian decomposition method (modified). The significant effects of buoyancy force and heat source are noticed to increase the speed transfer of heat within the flow regime. Also, the prevalent outcome of thermal energy at the lower and upper plates reduces with rising values of buoyancy force and reduces with heat source. The present result is compared with the earlier published article where the influence of buoyancy force and heat source were not accounted for.
