Second law analysis for chemically reacting natural convective second‐grade fluid flow between porous parallel plates with Hall and Ion slip

Abstract

AbstractIn this article, we performed the entropy generation of free convective chemically reacting second‐grade fluid confined between parallel plates in the influence of the Hall and Ion slip with heat and mass fluxes. Let there be a periodic suction/injection along with the plates, the governing flow field equations are reduced as a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using appropriate similarity transformations then solved numerically with shooting method based on Runge‐Kutta 4th order scheme. The results are analyzed for velocity in axial and radial directions, temperature distribution, concentration distribution, entropy generation number, Bejan number, mass and heat transfer rates with respect to distinct geometric, and fluid parameters and shown graphically and tables. It is observed that the entropy generation is enhanced with Prandtl number, whereas decreases with a second‐grade parameter, the effects of Hall and Ion slip parameters on velocity components, temperature and entropy generation number are the same. The entropy generation number the fluid is enhanced with the suction‐injection parameter whereas, the concentration of the fluid decreases with the increasing of chemical reaction parameter.
