THERMAL RADIATION IMPACT ON MHD CASSON VISCO-ELASTIC FLUID UNDER VISCOUS DISSIPATION

K. Sreenivasulu, B. Hari Babu, P. Chandra Reddy

Abstract

A theoretical study has been performed to analyze various properties of an electrically conducting visco-elastic and dissipative Casson fluid past a vertical porous plate bounded by a porous medium in the presence of thermal radiation and variable permeability. The basic concepts like magneto hydrodynamics, visco-elasticity, heat transfer, skin friction and rate of heat transfer are presented. The non-linear partial differential equations which govern the flow are solved numerically by finite difference scheme. The presence of thermal radiation decreases the temperature. The changes in skin friction and Nusselt number are also observed.

Keywords
