A Novel Numerical Procedure for Simulating Steady MHD Convective Flows of Radiative Casson Fluids over a Horizontal Stretching Sheet with Irregular Geometry under the Combined Influence of Temperature-Dependent Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity

Abstract

A novel mathematical computing analysis for steady magnetohydrodynamic convective flows of radiative Casson fluids moving over a nonlinearly elongating elastic sheet with a nonuniform thickness is established successfully in this numerical exploration. Also, the significance of an externally applied magnetic field with space-dependent strength on the development of MHD convective flows of Casson viscoplastic fluids is evaluated thoroughly by including the momentous influence of linear thermal radiation along with the temperature-dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity effects. By combining the assumption of the low-inducing magnetic field with the boundary layer approximations, the governing partial differential equations monitoring the current flow model are transmuted accordingly into a set of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations by invoking appropriate similarity transformations. Moreover, these derived differential equations are resolved numerically by utilizing a new innovative GDQLLM algorithm integrating the local linearization technique with the generalized differential quadrature method. On the other hand, the behaviours of velocity and temperature fields are deliberated properly through various graphical illustrations and different sets of flow parameters. However, the accurate datasets generated for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are presented separately in tabular displays, whose physical insights are discussed comprehensively via the slope linear regression method (SLRM). As main results, it is demonstrated that the higher values of the Casson viscoplastic parameter reduce significantly the fluid velocity within the boundary layer region, while a partial reverse tendency is observed near the stretching sheet as long as the wall thickness parameter is increased. Besides the previously mentioned hydrodynamical features, it is also depicted that the thermal field throughout the medium is enhanced considerably with the elevating values of these parameters.

Insights into the Generalized Fourier's and Fick's Laws for Simulating Mixed Bioconvective Flows of Radiative-Reactive Walters-B Fluids Conveying Tiny Particles subject to Lorentz Force

“…For reducing the mathematical complexity of the present boundary layer flow problem, the resulting coupled ODEs are linearized properly to decouple them into a sequence of dependent linear differential subsystems by utilizing the spectral local linearization method (SLLM) as explained by Motsa [42]. After some necessary rearrangements, the simplified subsystems are discretized irregularly in a well-defined computational domain based on the Gauss -Lobatto collocation points [43][44][45][46][47][48][49]. After a successful spatial linearization, Eqns.…”

“…The uids models and the diusion equations with integer derivative or non-integer derivatives occupy a great part of the literature nowadays. Many papers in the literature address the uid models [31,35].
