Abstract

AbstractThe current investigation deals with the numerical simulation of cross‐flow of non‐Newtonian fluid. Flow dynamics are studied by considering a uniform channel bounded by porous walls. Transversely acting magnetic fields have also been taken into account on the two‐dimensional flow of Tangent‐Hyperbolic fluid. Skin friction is addressed by employing the lubrication effects on the porous channel. In addition to this, Fourier's law of conduction is incorporated to highlight the heating effects which attenuates the shear thickening posture of the fluid. Highly nonlinear and coupled differential equations are solved numerically by using the Runge‐Kutta method with shooting technique. Thermal and momentum transport is simulated by generating the numerical MATLAB codes. Study reveals that slippery porous walls/channels can effectively be used in chemical and mechanical industries which deal with various kinds of highly viscous flows. Moreover, more energy is contributed by Peclet number and viscous heating parameter and improve the heat transfer rate.
