Purpose This study aims to investigate the effect of two-dimensional Darcy-Forchheimer flow over second-grade fluid with linear stretching. Heat transfer through convective boundary conditions is taken into account. Design/methodology/approach Nonlinear coupled governing equations are tackled with a homotopy algorithm, while for numerical computation the computer software package BVPh 2.0 is used. The convergence analysis is also presented for the validation of analytical and numerical results. Findings Valuation for the impact of key parameters such as variable thermal conductivity, Dufour and Soret effects and variable magnetic field in an electrically conducted fluid on the velocity, concentration and temperature profiles are graphically illustrated. It is observed from the results that temperature distribution rises by Dufour number whereas concentration distribution rises by Soret number. The Forchheimer number and porosity parameter raise the skin friction coefficient. The permeable medium has a vital impact and can help in reining the rate of heat transfer. Practical implications The permeable medium has a vital impact and can help in reining the rate of heat transfer. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is reported for the first time.

The present work explores the behavior of three-dimensional incompressible viscous fluid flow and heat transfer over the surface of a non-flat stretchable rotating disk. A variable thickness fluid is subjected under the influence of an external variable magnetic field and heat transfer. Navier–Stokes equation is coupled with Maxwell equations to examine the hydrothermal properties of fluid. The basic governing equations of motion are diminished to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using appropriate similarity framework, which are further treated with numerical scheme known as parametric continuation method. The parametric continuation method has combined interesting characteristics of both shooting and implicit finite difference methods. For validity of the present numerical scheme, a comparison with the published work is performed and it is found that the results are in excellent agreement with each other. Numerical and graphical results for the velocity, temperature, and magnetic strength profiles as well as skin fractions and Nusselt number are presented and discussed in detail for various physical parameters. The heat transfer process is reduced with positive increment of no-flatness parameter [Formula: see text], while Prandtl number increases the heat transfer rate at the surface of the disk.
