Viscous dissipation and radiation absorption effects on unsteady MHD free convective fluid flow past an inclined porous plate with chemical reaction

Abstract

The current scrutinization concentrated on the consequences of viscous dissipation and chemical reaction on unsteady MHD two‐dimensional free convective fluid flow past a semi‐infinite inclined permeable plate with radiation absorption and heat generation. The governing equations are determined analytically by employing the perturbation technique. The impact of various physical estimators on velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, and Nusselt number along with Sherwood number were exemplified quantitatively through graphs. It was concluded that velocity declined with the incremental values of Eckert number, but contradictory impact occurred in the case of skin friction. In addition temperature, Nusselt number, as well as velocity, declined with the progressive values of radiation absorption. However, skin friction was accelerated with the augmented values of radiation absorption. Velocity accelerated, with the progressive values of angle of inclination. Concentration declined with the various augmentation values of chemical reaction as well as Schmidt number.
