Significance of Soret and Dufour effects on the flow of non-Newtonian fluid past over a slendering stretchable surface with multiple slip conditions: A thermodynamics investigation
The current study presents a numerical analysis of magnetically influenced Casson liquid flow along a slendering extendable surface utilized in the production of optical fiber, polymer sheets, photoelectric devices, solar cells, and wire coating. The study’s uniqueness is reinforced by the inclusion of the impact of Soret and Dufour features, as well as slippage of velocity, temperature, and solutal properties. By implementing boundary layer theory, the problem is developed mathematically in context of PDEs that are converted into nonlinear ODEs by invoking appropriate similarity transformation. Numerical solution of the attained nonlinear differential setup is obtained by executing RK-4 technique in conjunction with shooting iterative procedure. The outcomes are divulged in graphical manner to elaborate the impression of associated aspects on momentum, thermal, and concentration distributions. Impression of distinct factors on skin friction, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are delineated in table. Outcomes shows that the momentum profile dominates for Newtonian fluid flow, while darg coefficient shows contrary aspects. Declination in thermal distribution verses (Sr) and (Du) is perceived, while heat flux coefficient elevates against (Sr) and depreciates by varying (Du). It is also deduced that skin friction coefficient magnifies up to 50% while heat and mass fluxes decays up to 23% and 33% respectively for non-Newtonian fluid flow.
