Abstract

The significance of radiation, Soret and Dufour’s effects on MHD flow in a porous media near a stagnation point past a vertical plate with slip, temperature, and concentration boundary conditions were investigated. Local similarity variables are used in the solution, which reduces the PDEs into analogous boundary value problem for ODEs. Symmetry analysis can be used to detect these variations in local similarity. To numerically explain the problem, a shooting approach and the MATLAB bvp4c solver are utilized. As the magnetic field and porous medium parameters are raised, the skin friction increases, and the temperature increases as the radiation pointer is increased. As the Soret number grows, the concentration profile rises.
