Three‐dimensional flow of an elastico‐viscous fluid with mass transfer

Abstract

SUMMARYThis paper looks at the unsteady three-dimensional MHD flow of an elastico-viscous fluid over a stretching surface. The analysis of mass transfer is also analyzed. The governing boundary layer equations are reduced into partial differential equations with three dependent variables through similarity transformations. The transformed system of equations is solved analytically by employing homotopy analysis method (HAM). Plots for various interesting parameters are presented and discussed. Numerical data for surface shear stresses and surface mass transfer in steady case are also tabulated.

Heat Transfer in a Couple Stress Fluid over a Continuous Moving Surface with Internal Heat Generation and Convective Boundary Conditions

“…Boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid over a continuously moving permeable surface was studied numerically by Ishak et al [15]. Hayat et al [16] presented an analysis on the flow and heat c 2012 Verlag der Zeitschrift für Naturforschung, Tübingen · http://znaturforsch.com transfer over a continuously moving surface with a parallel free stream in a viscoelastic fluid. It is noticed from the existing literature that no investigation has been made so far to study the effect of heat generation in a non-Newtonian fluid over a moving surface with convective boundary conditions [17 -20].…”

MHD squeezing flow of second‐grade fluid between two parallel disks

“…Analytic solution of the entire differential system is developed by HAM. Hayat et al [30] studied the unsteady three-dimensional MHD flow and mass transfer in a porous space using HAM. Very recently Hayat et al [31] employed HAM to derive the analytic solution for flow of a third-grade fluid with heat and mass transfer.…”

Antimicrobial Peptides and Their Superior Fluorinated Analogues: Structure–Activity Relationships as Revealed by NMR Spectroscopy and MD Calculations

“…A reaction is said to be first order if the reaction rate is directly proportional to the concentration itself 27. Few contributions regarding the chemical reaction effects on the boundary‐layer stretching flows are presented in references 31–36.…”
