Chemical reaction impact on MHD dissipative Casson-Williamson nanofluid flow over a slippery stretching sheet through porous medium

Abstract

In this study, we investigated the heat and mass transport properties of a non-Newtonian Casson-Williamson nanofluid flow. We explore the effect of viscous dissipation and the velocity slip boundary condition on the mechanism of heat and mass transfer due to a stretching sheet which embedded in a porous medium with heat generation under the influence of both thermal radiation and a uniform magnetic field. All physicochemical characteristics of Casson-Williamson nanofluid are considered to be constant. The nanofluid concentration is investigated under chemical repercussions as a result of the movement of the nanofluid particles. This study assumes that there is no suction (solid wall). A set of nonlinear partial differential equations with boundary conditions are used to mathematically model this physical problem. The numerical solution for the differential equations with the related boundary conditions was illuminated using the Runge–Kutta approach in conjunction with the shooting technique. The numerical examination is then pictorial displayed to show the impact of various governing factors on velocity, temperature, and concentration. The non-Newtonian nanofluid has a faster velocity in the absence of a magnetic field than in the presence of it, although the temperature field has the opposite trend. Further, the skin-friction coefficient increased as the porosity parameter increased, whereas the rate of heat transfer dropped.
