Steady flow of MHD Williamson fluid due to a continuously moving surface with viscous dissipation and slip velocity

Abstract

This research attempts to draw a fuller understanding of the magnetohydrodynamic flow of Williamson fluid owing to a continuously moving permeable surface. A detailed illustration of the importance of the effects of viscous dissipation and the variable fluid properties phenomena are also given. Meanwhile, this work has also revived the interest of the slip velocity phenomenon. The success is met after formulating the thorough equations which describe this model, thus it is no longer difficult to get into the numerical solution for this model via the shooting method. By analogy, this interesting subject also stimulates us to pursue further details which can be obtained from both the drag force or the skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer. Based on our apparent results, the presence of magnetic field, suction phenomena and slip velocity was the reason to reduce the surface velocity. Also, the same parameters can serve as a helpful guide for governing the rate of heat transfer.
