Soret-Dufour Effects on Unsteady Flow of Convective Eyring-Powell Magneto Nanofluids over a Semi-Infinite Vertical Plate

The aim of this paper is to study a two-dimensional free convective flow of Eyring-Powell Magneto nanofluid involving collective effects of thermal and mass diffusion with Soret-Dufour effects. The governing equations of the linear momentum, energy equation, and concentration are converted into non-...

Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to study a two-dimensional free convective flow of Eyring-Powell Magneto nanofluid involving collective effects of thermal and mass diffusion with Soret-Dufour effects. The governing equations of the linear momentum, energy equation, and concentration are converted into non-dimensional non-linear ordinary differential equations with the facilitation of suitable group of similarity transformation. The transformed non-linear ordinary differential equations become coupled and numerically solved using the fifth-order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method in conjunction with the shooting technique by fitting proper boundary conditions. Computations are performed for many values of different governing parameters influencing the velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions, and obtained results are comprehensively analyzed.
