The present study analyses the dissipative influence into an unsteady electrically conducting fluid flow embedded in a pervious medium over a shrinkable sheet. The behavior of thermal radiation and chemical reactions are also contemplated. The governing partial differential equations are reformed to ordinary differential equations by operating similarity transformations. The numerical outcomes for the arising non-linear boundary value problem are determined by implementing the Successive linearization method (SLM) via Matlab software. The velocity, temperature, and concentration magnitudes for distant values of the governing parametric quantities are conferred, and their conduct is debated via graphical curves. The surface drag coefficient increases, whereas the local Nusselt number and Sherwood number decreases for enhancing unsteadiness parameter across suction parameter. Moreover, the magnetic and suction parameters accelerate velocity magnitudes while by raising porosity parameter, velocity decelerates. Larger numeric of thermal radiation parameter and Eckert number accelerates the temperature profile while by enhancing Prandtl number it decelerates. Schmidt number and chemical reaction parameters slowdowns the concentration distribution, and the chemical reaction parameter influences on the point of chemical reaction that benefits the interface mass transfer. It is expected that the current achieved results will furnish fruitful knowledge in industrious utilities.

The problem of magnetomicropolar fluid flow, heat, and mass transfer with suction through a porous medium is numerically analyzed. The problem was studied under the effects of chemical reaction, Hall, ion-slip currents, and variable thermal diffusivity. The governing fundamental conservation equations of mass, momentum, angular momentum, energy, and concentration are converted into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by means of similarity transformation. The resulting system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations is the then solved using a fairly new technique known as the successive linearization method together with the Chebyshev collocation method. A parametric study illustrating the influence of the magnetic strength, Hall and ion-slip currents, Eckert number, chemical reaction and permeability on the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers, skin friction coefficients, velocities, temperature, and concentration was carried out.

The present inquiry studies the influence of mass transfer in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid flow on a stretchable, porous subsurface. The governing partial differential equations for the flow problem are reformed to ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations. The numerical outcomes for the arising non-linear boundary value problem are determined by implementing the successive linearization method (SLM) via Matlab software. The accuracy of the SLM is confirmed through known methods, and convergence analysis is also presented. The graphical behavior for all the parametric quantities in the governing equations across the velocity and concentration magnitudes, as well as the skin friction and Sherwood number, is presented and debated in detail. A comparability inquiry of the novel proposed technique, along with the preceding explored literature, is also provided. It is expected that the current achieved results will furnish fruitful knowledge in industrious utilities and correlate with the prevailing literature.

Abstract The current improvement in nanoscience and nanotechnology areas has attracted researchers' attention to biofuel, bioengineering, and biomedical and mechanical engineering applications. However, there is no report on the extension of Buongiorno's model incorporating the Cattaneo-Christov theory and the generalized Fick's law to reflect the significant impacts of Brownian motion, thermophoresis diffusion, thermal radiation, and activation energy. The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) suitable to model the case as mentioned above were converted into a unified set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying appropriate similarity transformations and solved numerically by using the Spectral Local Linearization Method (SLLM) and MATLAB in-built package. The SLLM numerical method provides robustness results with a higher level of exactness and low‐computational cost. It is worthy to conclude that the nanoparticles concentration distribution can be heightened considerably either by diminishing the Prandtl number and concentration relaxation parameter or increasing the values of nanoparticles concentration Biot number and activation energy parameter. An attractive reduction in the surface drag force coefficient is achievable via the intensifying values of the non-Newtonian parameter.

We study natural convection from a downward pointing cone in a viscoelastic fluid embedded in a porous medium. The fluid properties are numerically computed for different viscoelastic, porosity, Prandtl and Eckert numbers. The governing partial differential equations are converted to a system of fourth order ordinary differential equations using the similarity transformations and then solved together by using the successive linearization method (SLM). Many studies have been carried out on natural convection from a cone but they did not consider a cone embedded in a porous medium with linear surface temperature. The results in this work are validated by the comparison with other authors.

The effects of viscous dissipation on the boundary layer flow of hybrid nanofluids have been investigated. This study presents the mathematical modelling of steady two dimensional boundary layer flow of Cu-TiO2 hybrid nanofluid. In this research, the surface of the model is stretched and shrunk at the specific values of stretching/shrinking parameter. The governing partial differential equations of the hybrid nanofluid are reduced to the ordinary differential equations with the employment of the appropriate similarity transformations. Then, Matlab software is used to generate the numerical and graphical results by implementing the bvp4c function. Subsequently, dual solutions are acquired through the exact guessing values. It is observed that the second solution adhere to less stableness than first solution after performing the stability analysis test. The existence of viscous dissipation in this model is dramatically brought down the rate of heat transfer. Besides, the effects of the suction and nanoparticles concentration also have been highlighted. An increment in the suction parameter enhances the magnitude of the reduced skin friction coefficient while the augmentation of concentration of copper and titanium oxide nanoparticles show different modes.

The Soret and Dufour effects in the presence of chemical reaction on natural convection heat and mass transfer of a couple stress fluid in a vertical channel formed by two vertical parallel plates is presented. The governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. The resulting equations are then solved using Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). Profiles of dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration are shown graphically for various values of Dufour number, Soret number, Couple stress parameter and chemical reaction parameter.
