The study of the exponentially accelerated vertical plate with MHD flow
Dufour effect and chemical reaction with mass transfer using FEM
Abstract
The study aims to quantify the effect of Dufour number, on flow patterns
and heat transfer rates in the exponentially accelerated vertical plate
with MHD flow and chemical reaction. The unsteadiness of the flow
suggests that time-dependent changes in velocity, temperature, and other
relevant parameters are considered. MHD further complicates analysis
with the electromagnetic interactions between the fluid and the field.
The fluid, be characterized as a gray, absorbing/emitting radiation
medium, indicating that it absorbs and emits thermal radiation but does
not exhibit scattering behavior. Set of partial differential equations
are then resolve using FEM. Graphical results are then discussed.
Profiles vary with different, Dufour number, radiation, or
temperature-dependent heat source/sink parameter. By varying the values
of these governing parameters, on the skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt
number, and Sherwood number are also analyzed.
