Effect of Forchheimer on Hydromagnetic Flow Inspired by Chemical Reaction Over an Accelerating Surface

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of Forchheimer and Lorentz on paired heat and mass transfer by MHD twinned convective flow of a Newtonian fluid with the chemical reaction effect through porous media over an accelerating surface. The governing equations of the physical model are the non-linear coupled PDEs, which are converted to a system of coupled non-linear ODEs with a suitable similarity transformation. By implementing the Shooting technique, the computations are drawn numerically for the distributions of velocity, thermal variations and species changes for distinct dimensionless parameters such as Hartmann number, buoyancy parameters, porous parameter, local inertial parameter, Prandtl number, viscosity parameter, Eckert number and chemical reaction parameter etc. Also, the numerical computations of flow velocity, temperature and species concentration are illustrated graphically for the important physical parameters.
