This study deals with the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic Casson fluid flow, heat and mass transfer over a stretching surface in the presence of non-uniform heat source/sink, thermal radiation and Soret effects. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation, which are then solved numerically using Runge-Kutta based shooting technique. We obtained good accuracy of the present results by comparing with the exited literature. The influence of dimensionless parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles along with the friction factor, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are discussed with the help of graphs and tables. It is found that the positive values of non-uniform heat source/sink parameters acts like heat generators and helps to develop the temperature profiles of the flow.

Three-dimensional magnetohydromagnetic slip flow of chemically reacting fluid over a variable thickness stretching sheet with space and temperature dependent heat source/sink was analysed numerically. Runge-Kutta and Newton’s methods are employed for solving the reduced ordinary differential equations with the help of similarity variables. Plots are demonstrated and examined for several parameters of concern. Also the effect of the same parameters on skin friction coefficient, heat and mass transfer rates are presented in tabular form. We found a good agreement of the present results by comparing with the published results. It is observed that space and temperature dependent heat source/sink parameters acts like controlling parameters of heat transfer. Slip effects reduce the development of concentration and thermal boundary layers.
