Numerical simulation of mass and heat transport phenomena of hydromagnetic flow of Casson fluid with sinusoidal boundary conditions

Abstract A magnetic field might interact with its surroundings, influencing chemical and physical processes in materials processing, heat exchangers, and other scientific study. Therefore, a computational study of non‐Newtonian (Casson) free convective MHD unsteady fluid flow has been highlighted in this article with mass and heat transit property through a vertical infinite porous plate. A sinusoidal boundary conditions as well as chemical reaction and thermal radiation have been considered. Using a collection of nondimensional variables, the flow related equations are also turned into nondimensional form. The EFDM algorithm is employed in order to arrive at a numerical solution via Compaq Visual Fortran. The reliability of the numerical solution has been confirmed using stability testing and convergence analysis. The whole system is convergent when the values of Prandtl number and Lewis number are greater than or equals to 0.075 and 0.025, respectively. A visual depiction of the impact of the pertinent factors on dimensionless velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are displayed through graphical representation as well as with tabular representation. It has been inspected that when the magnetic component is regarded, it greatly affects the heat transfer factors of Casson nanofluid and the heat also rises when Eckert number, heat source and radiation parameter accelerate. It is also found that the Sherwood number is increased as the impact of chemical reaction parameter and the Lewis number, also the skin friction is decreased as the influence of porosity term got accelerated. The comparison of the current findings with the data that were previously published serves as the final stage in validating the present study.
