Abstract The study in this manuscript aims to analyse the impact of thermal radiation on the two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic flow of upper convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid between parallel plates. The lower plate is porous and stationary, while the top plate is impermeable and moving. The equations that describe the flow are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations with boundary conditions by employing similarity transformations. The Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is then employed to approach the obtained non-linear ordinary differential equations and get an approximate analytical solution. The analysis includes plotting the velocity profile for different Reynolds number… More >

Abstract The main intention of this study is to explore Maxwell fluid under the influence of thermophoresis and buoyancy forces induced by exponentially stretching sheet under chemical reaction. Cattaneo –Christov heat flux model is used to explore heat and mass characteristics with variable magnetic field, and chemical reaction. Variables of similarity were induced to transmute partial differential equations into dimensionless equations and are resolved numerically by elegant method bvp 4c. Behavior of various critical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentrations is graphically presented and discussed. Non Newtonian nature of the Maxwell fluid is clearly explored by More >

Abstract This article presents an unsteady incompressible Upper Convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid flow with temperature dependent thermal conductivity between parallel porous plates which are maintained at different temperatures varying periodically with time. Assume that there is a periodic suction and injection at the upper and lower plates respectively. The governing partial differential equations are reduced to non linear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and the solution is obtained using differential transform method. The effects of various fluid and geometric parameters on the velocity components, temperature distribution and skin friction are discussed in detail through More >
