Abstract

The present study deals with the boundary layer analysis of a 2D magnetohydrodynamic flow of chemically reacting Casson nanofluid flow over a semi-infinite inclined porous plate. The energy and diffusion equation are encompassed with frictional heating, heat generation/absorption, thermo diffusion and thermal radiation effects. For making the analysis more attractive we pondered two distinct type of nanofluids namely, TiO2-water and CuO-water. The transmuted governing PDEs are resolved analytically by employing regular perturbation method. The impact of pertinent flow parameters on momentum, thermal and mass transport behavior including the skin friction factor, thermal and mass transport rate are examined and published with the assistance of graphical and tabular forms. Results describe that thermal radiation and chemical reaction restrictions have a propensity to enhance thermal and mass transport rates, respectively. And also, water based TiO2 nanofluid possess higher velocity compared with water based CuO nanofluids.
