Diffusion-thermo and thermal-diffusion effects with inclined magnetic field on unsteady MHD slip flow over a permeable vertical plate

Abstract

AbstractIn this study, various fluid physical quantities effects such as diffusion-thermo, thermal-diffusion, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, inclined magnetic field on unsteady MHD slip flow over a permeable vertical plate are considered. The coupled and nonlinear partial differential governing equations consisting of momentum, energy and species equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations using perturbation technique. The resulted coupled, nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved by using collocation method with the aid of assumed Legendre polynomial. The impacts of different physical parameters on fluid properties are discussed and presented both graphically and tabularly. Both Dufour and Soret have the tendency of enhancing velocity profiles.
