Significance of Cross Diffusion on the Transient Behaviour of Radiating Casson Fluid near a Heated Slanted Plate

Significance of Cross Diffusion on the Transient Behaviour of Radiating Casson Fluid

Abstract

High heat is used to destroy tumors and abnormal tissues through thermal ablation. The use of hyperthermia with chemotherapy and radiation therapy has been shown to increase their efficacy by damaging cancer cells and enhancing drug delivery. It is possible to use heat therapies to target tumors precisely while causing minimal damage to normal tissues at the same time. Diffusion thermo and thermo diffusion effects can affect local concentrations of therapeutic agents and heat transfer, potentially enhancing hyperthermia treatment effectiveness. The properties of Casson fluids, which intimately resemble blood motion in capillaries, are principally relevant in the design of biomedical devices such as artificial organs. A study of heat transfer in fluid flows can also assist in recognition of pollutant dispersion from technical sources and correcting combustion productivity for reducing transmission. The analysis presented here investigates the unsteady flow of Casson fluid across an impulsively initiated slanted plate, under the influence of thermo diffusion, diffusion thermo, and thermal radiation. In this study, the controlling flow equations are integrated adopting the Laplace transform mechanism, and the consequences emphasize concentration, temperature, and velocity distributions based on disparate parameter estimates. Tables analyze Sherwood number, Nusselt number, and skin friction factors. The consequences show that increasing the thermal radiation and plate inclination angle increases the fluid velocity, while decreasing the wall friction is found for opposing and assisting buoyancy forces. The Nusselt number and fluid temperature are increased by heat source and diffusion thermo effects. In a similar vein, the Sherwood number lowers with thermal radiation and rises with the thermo-diffusion effect.
