Thermal Slip Analysis of a Casson Fluid in a Channel

Abstract

The objective of this thesis is to ca1Ty out thermal slip analysis of a Casson fluid in a channel. The fluid is flowing through a channel under the impact of magnetic field and thennal radiation. The channel walls are slippery enough to analyze the slip effects. The flow is confined to a porous zone. We obtained dimensionless flow equations by introducing nondimensional parameters. The converted equations are solved analytically by using method of separation of variables. The impact of various parameters on flow field are discussed graphically. Variation of thermal and velocity slip parameters are closely observed. With an increase in thennal slip, temperature increases at lower wall, while decreases at upper wall. With an increase in velocity slip, velocity increases at both walls.
