Abstract

This paper presents the two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic Carreau fluid flow over a plane and parabolic regions in the form of buoyancy and exponential heat source effects. Soret and Dufour effects are used to examine the heat and mass transfer process. The system of ODE's is obtained by utilizing similarity transformations. The RK-based shooting process is employed to generate the numerical solutions. The impact of different parameters of interest on fluid flow, concentration and thermal fields is characterized graphically. Tabular results are presented to discuss the wall friction, reduced Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. It is seen that the flow, thermal and concentration boundary layers of the plane and parabolic flows of Carreau fluid are non-uniform.
