- Description
- Magnetohydrodynamic flow of Carreau fluid over a slendering sheet (variable thickness) has been numerically studied by considering the multiple slips effect. Thermosolutal boundary layer analysis is also accounted in the presence of cross diffusion and non-uniform heat source/sink. The governing nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are transformed to nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations before being integrated numerically using Runge–Kutta based Newton’s schemes. The effects of various parameters involved in the present problem were elaborately discussed with help of graphs and tables. The present results in a limiting sense are found to accord with the previous study. The present results indicate that the cross diffusion and slip parameters had a tendency to control the flow. The influence of slip is more evident in Carreau fluid case on contrast with the Newtonian fluid case.
