In this report, the effects of homogeneous-heterogeneous autocatalytic chemical reaction together with the variable thermal conductivity in the Maxwell fluid flow due to nonlinear surface of variable thickness are investigated. Thermal radiation and heat generation / absorption effects are also incorporated in the analysis. Appropriate scaling analysis is implemented to reduce the mathematical model describing the physics of the problem in to a set of nonlinear differential equations and are subsequently solved computationally. Graphical illustrations indicating the effect of pertinent parameters on momentum, thermal and solutal boundary layers are presented and discussed. The study reveals that velocity distribution shows a decreasing (increasing) tendency for larger values of wall thickness parameter when the velocity power law index is less (greater) than unity. The concentration of the homogeneous bulk fluid with catalyst at the surface decreases with increasing chemical reaction rate parameters.

AbstractA two-dimensional mathematical model of magnetized unsteady incompressible Williamson fluid flow over a sensor surface with variable thermal conductivity and exterior squeezing with viscous dissipation effect is investigated, numerically. Present flow model is developed based on the considered flow geometry. Effect of Lorentz forces on flow behaviour is described in terms of magnetic field and which is accounted in momentum equation. Influence of variable thermal conductivity on heat transfer is considered in the energy equation. Present investigated problem gives the highly complicated nonlinear, unsteady governing flow equations and which are coupled in nature. Owing to the failure of analytical/direct techniques, the considered physical problem is solved by using Runge-Kutta scheme (RK-4) via similarity transformations approach. Graphs and tables are presented to describe the physical behaviour of various control parameters on flow phenomenon. Temperature boundary layer thickens for the amplifying value of Weissenberg parameter and permeable velocity parameter. Velocity profile decreased for the increasing squeezed flow index and permeable velocity parameter. Increasing magnetic number increases the velocity profile. Magnifying squeezed flow index magnifies the magnitude of Nusselt number. Also, RK-4 efficiently solves the highly complicated nonlinear complex equations that are arising in the fluid flow problems. The present results in this article are significantly matching with the published results in the literature.

AbstractThe principal objective of the present paper is to know the reaction of thermal radiation and the effects of magnetic fields on a viscous dissipative free convection fluid flow past an inclined infinite plate in the presence of an induced magnetic field. The Galerkin finite element technique is applied to solve the nonlinear coupled partial differential equations and effects of thermal radiation and other physical and flow parameters on velocity, induced magnetic field, along with temperature profiles are explained through graphs. It is noticed that as the thermal radiation increases velocity and temperature profiles decrease and the induced magnetic field profiles increases.
