Mass Transfer and Radiative Heat Transfer Flow of MHD Casson Fluid with Temperature Gradient Dependent Heat Sink and Internal Mass Diffusion in a Vertical Channel with Stretching Porous Walls

Abstract

In the present paper an investigation of the flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics of a MHD Casson fluid in a parallel plate channel with stretching walls with respect to a uniform magnetic field and porous media is carried out. Similarity transformation technique is used to transform the system of partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The governing non-linear differential equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta method of fourth order via shooting technique. Graphs for the velocity, temperature and concentration are plotted to analyze the behavior of the flow with different physical parameters. The skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood numbers are computed and tabulated
