Abstract
An investigation is undertaken to compare and examine the influence of partial slip on the flow and heat transport of Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids within the boundary layer overa flat permeable plate. Navier-Stokes equation of motion is considered for Newtonian viscous incompressible fluid while the Walters Liquid (Model B΄) is taken for viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluid. Special forms of slip factors for velocity and temperature involving local Reynolds number are considered. By employing similarity variables, the fluid flow guided equations, along with the corresponding boundary conditions, are reduced to self-similar form. Subsequently, these equations are evaluated using the 'bvp4c' solver, which is built-in within MATLAB. The results obtained from numerical computations are graphically represented for both Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids, considering different values of flow feature factors. The impact of slip and other flow dominating parameters on the flow and heat transport of both Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids are analysed from a physical perspective.
