Numerical Investigation of Chemical Reaction and Heat Source on Radiating MHD Stagnation Point Flow of Carreau Nanofluid with Suction/Injection

Abstract:

This research work is focused on the effects of combined heat and mass transfer on MHD stagnation point flow of Carreau nanaofluid embedded in porous medium with heat source. Thermal radiation and chemical reaction are also taken into account. The governing non-linear PDEs are transformed into a set of non-linear coupled ODEs which are then solved numerically by using the Runge– Kutta–Fehlberg fourth–fifth order method along shooting technique. The graphical and tabular results elucidate the influence of different non-dimensional governing parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration fields along with the wall friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. We found the dual nature of the solutions for suction and injection cases. A good agreement of the present results has been observed by comparing with the existing literature results.
