Non-linear radiation and dissipative impacts on non-Newtonian hydromagnetic Falkner-Skan fluid through a wedge

Abstract

The non-linear radiation aspect of Falkner-Skan fluid flow significantly improved the energy transportation phenomenon which complies with significance in various processes including chemical processes and advanced nuclear engineering. The present article is to examine the non-linear radiation impact on hydromagnetic Falkner-Skan fluid flow across an edge in the account of Newtonian heating. The governing flow partial differential equations (PDEs) with associated conditions are constructed. The modeled PDEs are transformed into a system of coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by means of similarity variables. The final dimensionless non-linear ODEs are resolved numerically by the bvp4c computational procedure. Impacts of flow significant variables are elaborated on the flow distributions along the dragging force and rate of heat transfer using two-dimensional (2D) graphs. The non-Newtonian Falkner-Skan fluid flow is boosting the magnetic field. Also, the rate of heat transfer is a decreasing trend for boosting thermal radiation. The present results agree with those of the existing literature.
