Rheology of hydromagnetic viscoelastic fluid subjected to dissipation aspect

摘要

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to address the impact of gravity induced stretching flow of second grade liquid subject to thermal radiation. The flow is generated by the stretching of an impermeable cylinder. Stagnation point flow is considered. Convective type boundary conditions are applied on temperature and concentration. The present investigation further includes the aspects of magnetohydrodynamics, Joule heating, chemical reaction and viscous dissipation and heat generation/absorption. Design/methodology/approach - The ordinary differential expressions are formed using suitable similarity transformations from the governing partial differential expressions. The subsequent nonlinear ordinary differential expressions are solved analytically using homotopy concept to report the consequences of different dimensionless physical parameters in graphical and tabular forms. Findings - The results witnessed that increasing values of curvature parameter corresponds to higher temperature and concentration. Besides this, the impacts of destructive and constructive chemical processes on the concentration distribution are noted opposite. Originality/ - No such analysis has yet been reported.
