Heat transport and the aspects of retardation time phenomenon in the flow of highly viscoelastic nanofluid with a Newtonian heating agent

Abstract

This study investigates the convective thermal and solutal characteristics in the stagnation point flow of Burgers nanofluid accelerated due to stretching cylinder. The thermal features of the flow are examined by employing Fourier's law in addition to the effects of heat source/sink and Joule heating. The essential feature of this research is to utilize the activation energy and binary chemical reaction effects to investigate the convective mass transform phenomenon. Moreover, the process of heat as well as mass convection from the surface to the fluid is also observed by employing convective thermal and concentration boundary conditions. The dimensionless similarity transformations are invoked to attain the ordinary differential equations (ODE's) from governed partial differential equations (PDE's). The numerical solutions are carried out by utilizing bvp midrich numerical procedure. The section on physical analysis is proposed to elaborate on the outcomes of this study physically. The graphical illustration of physical parameters is also depicted and physically analyzed. The rate of mass transfer is depreciated for the augmenting scales of reaction rate and temperature difference constraints. Moreover, the escalating magnitudes of thermal Biot number drive up the thermal energy transport in the flow.
