Effects of Dufour and Radiation on MHD Convective Heat and Mass Transfer in Viscoelastic Fluid Flow Past a Porous Plate
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The study examines the impact of combined radiation and chemical reaction influences on the MHD free convective heat and mass transfer (HAMT) flow of an incompressible, viscous, electrically conductive elastic fluid via a permeable medium bounded by a porous plate.This study also takes into account the effects of heat generation and absorption.The flow of the fluid is influenced by a consistent transverse magnetic field.The primary objective is to investigate the fluid's behavior under free convection while considering the impact of the Dufour effect and pressure.The nonlinear PDEs governing energy, momentum, and mass diffusion are worked out using the perturbation method and MATLAB coding.Graphical representations illustrate the modifications in velocity (u), temperature (θ) and concentration (𝜙) profiles across different parameters.Also, equations are derived for the skin friction (SF), Nusselt number (Nu) and Sherwood number (Sh).
