The under-consideration article discloses the features of nonlinear mixed convective boundary layer flow of radiative Casson fluid along non-uniform heat source or sink. The generalized Fourier’s and Fick’s laws and thermophoretic effect are taken to analyze the transportation of heat and mass. The stratification and suction/injection effect are also implemented on the boundary of the sheet. The flow modeled equations are converted into system of coupled nonlinear ODEs by adopting similarity variables. These coupled equations are numerically computed with built-in Bvp4c technique. The developing parameters are described graphically via velocity profile, temperature, and concentration distribution. It is worth revealing that the higher values of the Casson fluid parameter and magnetic field parameter retarded the fluid velocity. It is also noticed that strong temperature is achieved for the higher estimation of non-uniform heat source/sink parameter. Further, enhancement is occurred in the shear stresses, by the enlargement of mixed convection and buoyancy ratio parameter.

This paper explore the Marangoni boundary layer flow in a Casson nano liquid over a stretching sheet. The effect of chemical reaction and uniform heat source/sink are taken into the account. The standard nonlinear system is resolved numerically via Runge-Kutta based shooting scheme. Role of substantial parameters on flow fields as well as on heat and mass transportation rates are determined and conferred in depth through graphs.From the investigation it reveals that, the Marangoni number plays a connecting role between the velocity and temperature gradients on the boundary surface. Further,the higher values of Lewis number and chemical reaction parameter reduces the solutal thermal boundary layer thickness decreases.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of the Casson fluid parameter on an incompressible, magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of a Casson fluid past a moving porous inclined plate in the presence of heat source and first-order chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation and then are solved numerically, adopting bv4pc method. The effects of relevant parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are analyzed graphically. Also, tabular form is used to present skin friction, heat transfer and mass transfer. This investigation reveals that the Casson fluid parameter enhances the fluid velocity, skin friction and Sherwood number, while the Nusselt number decreases.

In this article, the intention is to explore the flow of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) bioconvective micro-polar Nanofluid restraining microorganism. The numerical solution of 2-D laminar bioconvective boundary layer flow of micro-polar nanofluids are presented. The phenomena of multi-slip, convective thermal and Solutal boundary conditions have been integrated. A system of non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into the system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying appropriate transformations, the transformed equations are then solved by applying the variational finite element method (FEM). The fascinating features of assorted velocity parameter, microrotation, temperature, microorganism compactness, solutal and nanoparticles concentration have been inspected. The rate of heat transfer, the skin friction coefficient, couple stress and Sherwood number for microorganisms have also been discussed graphically and numerically. The investigations illustrated that increase in material parameters causes a reduction in microorganism compactness, concentration and temperature. As a result of enhancement in the unsteadiness parameter, the fluid velocity, concentration of microorganisms and the temperature are observed to be declines. Energy and microorganism compactness profile affected by the improvement in the buoyancy ratio parameter. As the improvement in results of buoyancy ratio parameter effects on improvement in the energy and the microorganism compactness profile while the velocity profile is condensed. In the end, rationalized convergence of the finite element solution has been inspected; the computations are found out via depreciating the mesh size.

Analytical investigation is performed into an unsteady Magnetohrodynamics mixed convective Casson fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics with thermal radiation, wall slip, heat source and buoyancy force in a permeable vertical channel. The fluid is injected into the left wall of the channel and sucked out at right wall. The governing momentum and energy balance equations are achieved and tackled analytically. The effects of numerous thermophysical parameters on the temperature profiles, velocity, Nusselt number as well as skin friction are presented graphically and discussed qualitatively. The results show that a temporal decline in the pressure gradient causes both the temperature and fluid velocity to decrease. Moreover, the enhancement in heat transfer due to wall injection/suction also causes the skin friction to decrease.

Purpose This paper aims to find the influence of convective heat transfer, buoyancy proportions, nonlinear thermal radiation, Prandtl number, Rayleigh number and Schmidt number on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles. Design/methodology/approach This paper explores the heat and mass transfer of a stagnation point stream of free convective Casson fluid over a moving vertical plate with nonlinear thermal radiation and convective boundary restrictions. The governing PDEs of stream, heat and concentration profiles were reformed into an arrangement of nonlinear ODEs by using similarity transformation. This framework was then tackled numerically by applying forth-order RK shooting strategy. Findings Distribution of flow, velocity and temperature profiles for different values of governing parameters are analyzed. Originality/value The original results are depicted in terms of plots.
