Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate heat and mass transport in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid on a stretched magnetized surface. The investigations involve modelling the governing partial differential equations with respect to the Cartesian coordinate system. The models are then transformed into a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. Numerical and graphical solutions were obtained using similarity analysis. The effect of the magnetized sheet on the flow behavior; local skin friction, Nusselt, and Sherwood numbers, are presented in tables. It was observed that an enhanced thickening of the thermal boundary layer was due to the induced magnetization of the sheet. This leads to a significant decline in the heat transfer rate. Certain significant discoveries reported in this research discloses that the effect of viscous dissipation and the non-uniform heat transmission have momentous impact in controlling the rate of heat transfer in the boundary layer region. Again, from the outcome of the analysis it is seen that, the effect of appreciating the Soret number or lessening the Dufour number tends to decrease the velocity and temperature profiles while enhancing the concentration dissemination. Magnetizing the surface shows similar effects on the local skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number. It is concluded that magnetized surfaces significantly influence the rate of cooling and hence the quality of the penultimate product.
