Abstract

A study has been carried out to analyze the double dispersion effects on unsteady, free convective, chemically reacting, MHD viscoelastic fluid (Walters liquid-B model) flow over a vertical cone and a flat plate saturated with non-Darcy porous medium in the presence of Soret and Dufour effects. The constitutive equations for the boundary layer regime are solved by an efficient finite difference scheme of the Crank-Nicolson type. The features of the fluid heat and mass transfer characteristics are analyzed by plotting graphs and the physical aspects are discussed in detail to interpret the effect of significant parameters of the problem. The overall heat and mass transfer profiles are enhanced for increasing the thermal and solutal dispersion effects, respectively. The results indicate that the Soret and Dufour effects have considerable effect on the viscoelastic fluid flow through non-Darcy porous medium.
