Combined Effects of Heat and Mass Transfer on MHD Free Convective Flow of Maxwell Fluid with Variable Temperature and Concentration

Abstract

Heat and mass transfer combined effects on MHD natural convection for a viscoelastic fluid flow are investigated. The dynamics of the fluid are controlled by the motion of the plate with arbitrary velocity along with varying temperature and mass diffusion. The non-dimensional forms of the governing equations of the model are developed along with generalized boundary conditions and the resulting forms are solved by the classical integral (Laplace) transform technique/method and closed-form solutions are developed. Obtained generalized results are very important due to their vast applications in the field of engineering and applied sciences; few of them are highlighted here as limiting cases. Moreover, parametric analysis of system parameters $P_r,S,K_c,G_T,G_c,M,S_c,\lambda$ is done via graphical simulations.
