Numerical Analysis of Heat and Mass Transfer through MHD Casson Fluid with Variable properties over a Permeable Elongating Sheet

Abstract

The paper presents, the heat and mass transfer characteristics of variable viscous MHD Casson fluid flow over a nonlinear permeable stretching sheet under viscous dissipation with suction. The leading coupled nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE’s) are exercised into coupled self-similar system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODE’s) through suitable similarity variables. These equations are solved numerically by utilizing Keller box method (KBM). The impact of various flow parameters involved in the physical problem are discussed in detail. The attained results are presented in the form of tables and graphs. The analysis reveals that flow is prominently influenced by the physical parameters and also attained results are compared with the earlier published findings which are comparable. The flow is accelerated with variable viscosity and decelerated with suction parameter.
