MHD and Slip Effect on Two-immiscible Third Grade Fluid on Thin Film Flow over a Vertical Moving Belt

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: The present paper related to thin film flows of two immiscible third grade fluids past a vertical moving belt with slip conditions in the presence of uniform magnetic field. Immiscible fluids we mean superposed fluids of different densities and viscosities. The basic governing equations of continuity, momentum and energy are incorporated. The modeled coupled equations are solved analytically by using Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) along with Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). The residual errors show the authentication of the present work. For comparison, numerical method (ND-Solve) is also applied and good agreement is found. The effects of model parameters on velocity, skin friction and temperature variation have been studied. At the end, the present study is also compared with single layer flow and revealed in close agreement with the result available in the literature.
