Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to look into the problem of Couette-Poiseuille flow of kerosene based ferrofluid passing through rotating permeable channel. Heat and mass transfer analyses are carried out to see the behavior of ferrofluid in such situation. In this problem ferrofluid is subjected to the effects of magnetic field and velocity slip boundary condition. By means of transformations, the consequential governing equations are developed into coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations. By using shooting method, numerical results of these non-linear ordinary differential equations is attained. The physical impact of all fluid parameters on flow arenas are presented graphically and described in detail. The primary velocity of the fluid is discovered to increase by increasing the values of Reynolds numbers, magnetic parameters and slip parameters on the lower wall. However secondary velocity decreases with magnetic parameter. Also fluid temperature increases by rotation parameter, Eckert number and upper wall motion parameter. Mass transfer in the fluid increases by the greater value of Schmidt number along with chemical reaction parameter.
