Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the steady 2D buoyancy effects on MHD flow over a permeable stretching sheet through porous medium in the presence of suction/injection. Design/methodology/approach Similarity transformations are employed to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The transformed equations are then solved numerically by a shooting technique. Findings The working fluid is examined for several sundry parameters graphically and in tabular form. It is observed that with an increase in magnetic field and permeability of porous parameter, velocity profile decreases while temperature and concentration enhances. Stretching sheet parameter reduces velocity, temperature and concentration, whereas it increases skin friction factor, Nusselt number and Sherwood number. Originality/value Till now no numerical studies are reported on the effects of heat source and thermal radiation on MHD flow over a permeable stretching sheet embedded in porous medium in the presence of chemical reaction.

The steady two-dimensional radiative MHD boundary layer flow of an incompressible, viscous, electrically conducting fluid caused by a nonisothermal linearly stretching sheet placed at the bottom of fluid saturated porous medium in the presence of viscous dissipation and chemical reaction is studied. The governing system of partial differential equations is converted to ordinary differential equations by using the similarity transformations, which are then solved by shooting method. The dimensionless velocity, temperature, and concentration are computed for different thermophysical parameters, namely, the magnetic parameter, permeability parameter, radiation parameter, wall temperature parameter, Prandtl number, Eckert number, Schmidt number, and chemical reaction.

An attempt has been made to study the heat and mass transfer effect in a boundary layer MHD flow of an electrically conducting viscous fluid subject to transverse magnetic field on an exponentially stretching sheet through porous medium. The effect of thermal radiation and heat source/sink has also been discussed in this paper. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta method with a shooting technique. Graphical results are displayed for nondimensional velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles while numerical values of the skin friction local Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in tabular form for various values of parameters controlling the flow system.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate steady two-dimensional laminar magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an incompressible Jeffrey fluid past over a linearly stretching sheet. The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) of continuity, momentum, energy and concentration are transformed into nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using similarity transformations. Then the ODEs are solved by applying Runge-Kutta fourth order method accompanied with shooting technique. The effects of various physical parameters characterizing the flow phenomenon including Deborah number, ratio of relaxation to retardation times, magnetic parameter, porous parameter, Prandtl number, Eckert number, heat source / sink parameter, Schmidt number and chemical reaction parameter on dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are analyzed. The numerical results are obtained and presented in graphs. The present results are compared with the earlier published results as a particular case.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of magnetic field on Williamson nanofluid embedded in a porous medium in the presence of non-uniform heat source/sink, chemical reaction and thermal radiation effects.Design/methodology/approachThe governing physical problem is presented using the traditional Navier–Stokes theory.

It is noticed that with an increase in Eckert number, there is an increase in velocity and temperature along with a decrease in shear stress and heat transfer rate.Originality/valueA good agreement of the present results has been observed by comparing with the existing literature results.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the comparative analysis between three hybrid nanofluids flow past a permeable stretching surface in a porous medium with thermal radiation. Uniform magnetic field is applied together with heat source and sink. Three set of different hybrid nanofluids with water as a base fluid having suspension of Copper-Aluminum Oxide (Cu−Al2O3), Silver-Aluminum Oxide (Ag−Al2O3) and Copper-Silver (Cu−Ag) nanoparticles are considered. The Marangoni boundary condition is applied. Design/methodology/approach The governing model of the flow is solved by Runga–Kutta fourth-order method with shooting technique, using appropriate similarity transformations. Temperature and velocity field are explained by the figures for many flow pertinent parameters. Findings Almost same behavior is observed for all the parameters presented in this analysis for the three set of hybrid nanofluids. For increased mass transfer wall parameter ( fw) and Prandtl Number (Pr), heat transfer rate cuts down for all three sets of hybrid nanofluids, and reverse effect is seen for radiation parameter (R), and heat source/sink parameter ( δ). Practical implications The thermal conductivity of hybrid nanofluids is much larger than the conventional fluids; thus, heat transfer efficiency can be improved with these fluids and its implications can be seen in the fields of biomedical, microelectronics, thin-film stretching, lubrication, refrigeration, etc. Originality/value The current analysis is to optimize heat transfer of three different radiative hybrid nanofluids ( Cu−Al2O3/H2O, Ag−Al2O3/H2O and Cu−Ag/H2O) over stretching surface after applying heat source/sink with Marangoni convection. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this work is new and never published before.
