Chemical Reaction and Generalized Heat Flux Model for Powell–Eyring Model with Radiation Effects

Abstract

In the current research, the numerical solutions for heat transfer in an Eyring–Powell fluid that conducts electricity past an exponentially growing sheet with chemical reactions are examined. As the sheet is stretched in the x direction, the flow occupies the region y > 0 . MHD, radiation, joule heating effects, and thermal relaxation time are all used to represent the flow scenario. The emergent problem is represented using PDEs, which are then converted to ODEs using appropriate similarity transformations. The converted problem is solved numerically using the SLM method. The main goal of this paper is to compare the results of solving the velocity and temperature equations in the presence of K changes through SLM, introducing it as a precise and appropriate method for solving nonlinear differential equations. Tables with the numerical results are created for comparison. This contrast is important because it shows how precisely the successive linearization method can resolve a set of nonlinear differential equations. Following that, the generated solution is studied and explained in relation to a variety of engineering parameters. Additionally, the thermal relaxation period is inversely proportional to the thickness of the thermal boundary layer and the temperature, but the Eckert number E c is the opposite. As E c grows, the temperature within the channel increases.
