MHD mixed convection flow of third grade liquid subject to non-linear thermal radiation and convective condition

Abstract

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection flow of third grade fluid by an exponentially stretching sheet is addressed. Energy expression involves the convective condition and non-linear thermal radiation. Non-linear ordinary differential systems are first constructed and then solved successfully. Interval of convergence via numerical data and plots are developed and verified. Impact of various influential variables on the dimensionless velocity and temperature are graphically analyzed. The coefficient of skin friction and local Nusselt number are discussed numerically. Opposite response of velocity and temperature profiles have been noticed for higher mixed convection. Also temperature is an increasing function of thermal radiation.
