Analysis of Heat and Mass Transfer for Casson Fluid Along a Moving Sheet in the Presence of Thermal Radiation and Suction/Injection

Abstract

The emphasis of this thesis is to present a thorough concept of analysis of heat and mass transfer for Casson fluid along moving sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and suction/injection effects. Firstly, mathematical formulation is developed for momentum, energy and concentration profiles. Later on, these PDEs are transformed into the dimensionless non-linear ODEs by using similarity transformations and the boundary conditions are defined with the thermal radiation term for the energy equation which is described with two cases (PST and PHF). The acquired solution of the dimensionless nonlinear ODEs will be evaluated by shooting method numerically using MATLAB. Results thus obtained for different physical parameters, namely, magnetic and Casson fluid parameter, stagnation point, Prandtl number, internal heat generation parameter, Schmidt number and thermal radiation on each profile is being constructed and discussed in detail.
