Thermo-diffusion impacts on the flow of an elastico-viscous fluid over an inclined heated plane with magnetized wall

Abstract

The focus is in this article is to scrutinize the simultaneous significances of magnetic diffusion, thermo-diffusion and angular location on the hydromagnetic flow of an elastico-viscous fluid over an inclined heated plane with magnetized wall. The flow medium is considered to be uniformly permeable (Darcy-Brinkman porous medium) and the flow of the fluid is considerably affected due to the appearance of a strong magnetic field in the direction normal to the flow surface. The significances of Hall current, induced magnetic field and Coriolis force on flow nature is also included in the study. The leading non-dimensionalized equations are explored by regular perturbation analysis. Ultimately, the expressions for velocity field, induced magnetic field, temperature and concentration are obtained. We further derived the surface skin friction, surface current density, heat and mass fluxes. The computation of results is performed with the aid of Mathematica software and results are presented in graphical and tabular forms for distinct flow impacting parameters. Numerical simulation explores that mass diffusion factor brings growth in the fluid velocity, temperature and normal induced magnetic field while it reduces the main induced magnetic field. Magnetic diffusion develops the primary flow and primary induced magnetic field and lessens the normal flow and normal induced magnetic field. Inclination angle of the heated plane upgrades primary induced magnetic field while downgrading normal induced magnetic field.
