An unsteady, magnetohydrodynamic, incompressible, radiative Casson fluid flow past an infinite vertical permeable plate, which is accelerated exponentially, in presence of heat sink parameter and first-order chemical reaction taking account of Soret effect, is considered. Governing equations are solved for the profiles of velocity, temperature and concentration with the help of Laplace transform. The effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are discussed with the help of graphs.

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.

The effect of non-coaxial rotation on the transport of mass subjected to first-order chemical reaction is studied analytically. The effects of thermal radiation, buoyancy, constructive and destructive chemical reactions along with Casson fluid in rotating frame are discussed. Time evolution of primary and secondary velocities, energy and solute particles are analyzed. The behavior of flow under the variation of intensity of magnetic field is also investigated. Evolutionary behavior of primary velocity is opposite to the evolutionary behavior of secondary velocity. The impact of buoyant force on primary velocity is opposite to the role of buoyant force on the secondary velocity. The evolutionary behavior of temperature is also examined and a remarkable enhancement in temperature is noticed. Thermal radiation causes the fluid to be cooled down as heat energy is escaped by thermal radiation. Evolutionary behavior of concentration is also analyzed and an increasing of concentration versus time is noted. Destructive chemical reaction results a remarkable reduction in the concentration and vice versa for generative chemical reaction.
