Abstract
In this paper, an incompressible electrically conducting mixed convective upper convected Maxwell fluid flow in a porous medium between parallel plates under the influence of inclined magnetic field, thermophoresis and Brownian motion is considered. Assume that there is periodic injection and suction at the lower and upper plates respectively. The temperature and concentration at the lower and upper plates are varying periodically with time. The flow field equations are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and a numerical solution has been obtained by using shooting technique with fourth order Runge–Kutta method. The velocity components, temperature distribution and concentration with respect to different fluid and geometric parameters are discussed in detail and presented in the form of graphs. It is observed that the temperature of the fluid is enhanced with Brownian parameter whereas the concentration decreases with increasing thermophoresis parameter. The present results are compared with the existing literature and are found to be good agreement.
