Abstract
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the magnetohydrodynamics mixed convection flow over an exponentially stretching surface in the presence of non-uniform heat source/sink and cross-diffusion. Adequate non-similar transformations are used to transform governing mixed convection boundary layer equations to dimensionless form.Design/methodology/approachThese dimensionless partial differential equations are solved by using implicit finite difference scheme in conjunction with Quasi-linearization technique.FindingsThe effects of admissible parameters such as Eckert number (Ec), the ratio of buoyancy forces parameter (N), non-uniform heat source/sink, Soret and Dufour numbers on flow, temperature and concentration distributions are discussed and analysed through graphs. In addition, the results for skin friction coefficient, Sherwood number and Nusselt number are presented and discussed graphically.Originality/valueIn literature, no research work has been found in similar to this research paper.
