Abstract

Heat and mass transport properties in the neighbourhood of stagnation region are analyzed in this paper where the region is created by the motion of Casson nanofluid inside a porous space. Porous space bounded by a sheet from one side is modeled by Darcy-Forchheimer rule, and is under the influence of heat source/sink and normal magnetic field. The developed mathematical model is solved for numerical solutions by the application of Runge-Kutta scheme due to Fehlberg along with Newton Raphson Shooting approach. This model is further reduced to Blasius and Sakiadis type flows to correlate them. For the validation of code and results, a comparison graph is prepared. Solutions depicted by figures and tables, reveal that velocity is declined in Sakiadis flow with Casson parameter however opposite nature is noted for Blasius flow. In Blasius flow, it is observed that temperature is greater and concentration is lower if compared with Sakiadis flow.
