MHD Casson flow of a rotating liquid past a porous medium in the presence of thermal radiation and chemical reaction
Abstract
Soret and Dufour effects have a major impact on flows involving temperature and concentration gradients. To give just one example, the Soret effect has been employed in the process of blending gases that have various molecular weights and in the process of discriminating between isotope pairings respectively. In this work, the laminar Casson flow of a fluid rotating across a permeable plate undergoing a chemical reaction is the subject of investigation. The essay emphasizes investigating how radiation, Soret, and Dufour influence the flow of the fluid. Due to the use of similarity variables, the governing equations and the accompanying boundary conditions are reduced to a dimensionless form. Subsequently, the equations are solved by ND with the assistance of the MATHEMATICA program. By using the flow’s dimensionless properties, we were able to derive numerical estimates of temperature, concentration, and velocity. The images that were produced because of this process were exhibited. Higher Soret and Dufour parameters, in conjunction with a rise in the radiation factor, led to improved velocity profiles and warm temperature distribution. These are the most important findings that were uncovered as a result of the investigation.
