Description:
AbstractA numerical analysis of MHD 3D second grade fluid over slendering stretching sheet is presented in this study. In addition, heat generation and thermal radiation impacts are included to inspect the heat transfer mechanism. Using the boundary layer approximation, the problem is stated mathematically in the form of PDEs (partial differential equations), which are altered to nonlinear ODEs (ordinary differential equations) by invoking appropriate similarity variables. Solutions of these nonlinear equations are computed by MATLAB bvp4c function. Graphs for involving parameters are plotted to view their impacts on velocity and temperature. Impression of numerous parameters on Skin friction and Nusselt number are also depicted in tables and the results are discussed in detail. The computed values of skin friction revealed constant behavior and Nusselt number depicted increasing performance due to boosting values of Prandtl number Pr. The computed values of skin friction revealed constant behavior and Nusselt number depicted reducing performance due to boosting values of heat generation parameter Q. The computed values of skin friction revealed constant behavior and Nusselt number depicted reducing performance due to boosting values of radiation parameter Rd.
