Utilizing numerical techniques for modeling radiating Casson nanofluid flow with thermophoretic phenomenon on a heated stretching surface

Abstract

This work aims to use mathematical modeling to investigate the mechanics of heat and mass transport in dissipative Casson nanofluid flows over a linear rough sheet. This study considers various elements such as thermal radiation, magnetic fields, heat generation, the varied properties of porous media, and the thermophoretic impact. Besides that, it looks into the variations in viscosity, diffusivity, and thermal conductivity, as well as the energy dissipation from viscous internal friction and fluid temperature modifications. The method involves coming up with and changing the boundary layer equations into a group of linked nonlinear ordinary differential equations that use variables that don’t have any dimensions. The foundation of the solution strategy for these equations is the Hermite collocation method (HCM), which is renowned for its precision and adaptability. It offers an organized approach to solving the complex differential equations, allowing for accurate numerical solutions. The use of graphical representations ensures thorough data analysis and clarity, while also providing insightful information about the computed outcomes. The code validation method uses numerical comparisons with recent research to confirm the algorithm’s accuracy and dependability, as well as its resilience in comparison to the existing literature. Important conclusions from the study show that thermal boundary layers and nanofluid velocity decrease with increases in the porosity parameter, slip parameter, and magnetic field parameter.
