AbstractThe present article deals the entropy generation due to heat and mass transfer of an unsteady MHD flow of a Casson fluid squeezed between two parallel disks. The upper disk is taken to be impermeable and the lower one is porous. The flow field equations are reduced to non-linear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and the resulting ODE problem is solved by shooting technique with Runge-Kutta 4thorder method. The effects of various non dimensional fluid and geometric parameters on the velocity components, temperature, concentration, entropy generation number, Bejan number, skin friction and Nusselt number are illustrated through graphs and tables. It is noticed that the temperature of the fluid is enhanced with Eckert number, whereas the concentration of the fluid decreased with Casson fluid parameter. The present study is applicable to nuclear engineering cooling systems, wire and blade coating, extrusion of polymer fluids, optical fibers, magnetohydrodynamics and optimization of chemical engineering processes.

Purpose This paper aims to propose a method by merging Legendre wavelets method and quasilinearization technique to tackle with the nonlinearity and to get better and more accurate results. Design/methodology/approach To test the significance of the proposed scheme, the authors applied the method on the model representing magneto-hydrodynamic squeezing flow of a viscous fluid between two parallel infinite disks, where one disk is impermeable and the other is porous with either suction or injection of the fluid. For the sake of comparison, numerical solution by using RK-4 is also computed. From the graphs and tables, it is evident that the proposed method shows an excellent accordance with the numerical solution. Findings The solution converges to the numerical solution when the degree of Legendre polynomials m is increased. For m = 20 in all the three cases, for different values of S, M and A, the graphs of solutions obtained by Legendre wavelet quasilinearization technique show an excellent agreement with numerical solution. Also, it is evident from figures that suction and injection affects the velocity profile in opposite way. For suction, maximum velocity is seen to be at the center of the channel. Magnetic field can be used to regularize the flow and it stabilizes the flow behavior. Originality/value Magnetic field can be used to regularize the flow and it stabilizes the flow behavior.
