Abstract

This mathematical model explains the three-dimensional flow of Casson liquid through a stretchable rotating disk. In momentum equation magnetic effect and in mass equation Arrhenius chemical reaction and activation energy effects are incorporated. The equation which represents the described flow pattern is reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using apposite similarity transformations and then they are tackled with the RKF45 method with shooting proficiency. The impact of pertinent parameters on thermal, mass and velocity curves are deliberated graphically. Further statistical values of skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are portrayed in table format. The result outcome reveals that, increase in the values of a magnetic parameter reduces velocity gradient. The concentration profile declines for augmented values of chemical reaction rate parameter, but a contrasting trend is seen in the concentration gradient for increased values of activation energy. Further, upsurge in thermophoretic and Brownian motion parameter reduces the mass transfer.
