Numerical investigation of the stagnation point flow of radiative magnetomicropolar liquid past a heated porous stretching sheet

Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, Volume 147, No. 12, Year 2022

In this paper, we have investigated the two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic steady boundary layer flow of a viscous magnetomicropolar liquid via an extending area. The impact of heat sink/source and chemical reaction is considered. The governing equations are modeled in Cartesian coordinate system. Using the suitable similarity transformations, the partial differential equations system is changed into the nonlinear ordinary differential equations system. The resulting system of equations is solved via mathematical renowned software Mathematica. The impact of diverse parameters through microrotation, concentration, temperature and velocity is examined via graphs. The present study reveals that the velocity is rising function of Soret number, Richardson number and Grashof number. It is mentioned that the greater velocity is located in the case of Newtonian liquid in contrast with the micropolar liquid. In the absence of chemical reaction parameter, the velocity is more as compared with higher chemical reaction parameter. Radiation, Hartmann and chemical reaction parameters augment the temperature. Concentration is a reducing function of radiation, Hartmann and chemical reaction parameters.
