Abstract:
This analysis emphasizes the significance of radiation and chemical reaction effects on the boundary layer flow (BLF) of Casson liquid over a linearly elongating surface, as well as the properties of momentum, entropy production, species, and thermal dispersion. The mass diffusion coefficient and temperature-dependent models of thermal conductivity and species are used to provide thermal transportation. Nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs) that go against the conservation laws of mass, momentum, heat, and species transportation are the form arising problems take on. A set of coupled dimensionless partial differential equations (PDEs) are obtained from a set of convective differential equations by applying the proper non-similar transformations. Local non-similarity approaches provide an analytical approximation of the dimensionless non-similar system up to two degrees of truncations. The built-in Matlab (Version: 7.10.0.499 (R2010a)) solver bvp4c is used to perform numerical simulations of the local non-similar (LNS) truncations.
