The Effectiveness of Mass Transfer in the MHD Upper-Convected Maxwell Fluid Flow on a Stretched Porous Sheet near Stagnation Point: A Numerical Investigation
Anwar Shahid
Abstract
The present inquiry studies the influence of mass transfer in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid flow on a stretchable, porous subsurface. The governing partial differential equations for the flow problem are reformed to ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations. The numerical outcomes for the arising non-linear boundary value problem are determined by implementing the successive linearization method (SLM) via Matlab software. The accuracy of the SLM is confirmed through known methods, and convergence analysis is also presented. The graphical behavior for all the parametric quantities in the governing equations across the velocity and concentration magnitudes, as well as the skin friction and Sherwood number, is presented and debated in detail. A comparability inquiry of the novel proposed technique, along with the preceding explored literature, is also provided. It is expected that the current achieved results will furnish fruitful knowledge in industrious utilities and correlate with the prevailing literature.
