Abstract
The present communication presents an entropy generation analysis of the Micropolar-Casson fluid flow adjacent to a non-isothermal vertical plate situated within a Darcy-Forchhiemer porous medium in a Cattaneo-Christov heat flux set-up. The governing equations admitting similar transformation results in a set of ODEs are handled by the homotopy analysis method. The study investigates the impact of embedded parameters on the flow and thermal fields. The present study presents tabulated data on skin friction, couple stress and wall temperature gradient besides profiles for other quantities of interest. In order to ensure the desired accuracy of the computations, the total squared residual error is minimized up to order The manuscript presents detailed working of the homotopy analysis method depicting its robustness as an elegant mathematical tool to tackle coupled BVP system generating entropy. The data set for the quantities of interest may be useful estimates for future similarly situated larger setups with varied complexities.
