Insight into the relationship between the Fourier's law of heat conduction and Fick's law over a Riga device: Fourth grade analysis

Abstract

Mixed convective flow of fourth grade (Non-Newtonian) fluid model by a Riga stretchable plate is addressed. The aim of the current research work is therefore to explain the role of the fourth grade (Non-Newtonian) fluid model in the field of fluid dynamics. Energy and concentration equations are modeled subject to both Fourier's law of heat conduction and Fick's law. Radiation aspects and heat source/sink phenomenon are also accounted. Entropy analysis is discussed through second thermodynamics law. The (OHAM) approach is used to achieve a meaningful solution. Finally, the emerging variables behavior on the velocity, temperature, concentration and entropy rate are discussed graphically. Here, velocity enhances for increasing range of fourth grade variable. Temperature boosts against rising radiation and thermal relaxation variables, but opposite trend is noted for solutal relaxation parameter on concentration.
