NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF MHD CASSON NANOFLUID FLOW TOWARDS A NON LINEAR STRETCHING SHEET IN PRESENCE OF DOUBLE-DIFFUSIVE EFFECTS ALONG WITH VISCOUS AND OHMIC DISSIPATION

The intention behind carrying out this research work is to analyze the steady Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow with Casson nanofluid in presence of Viscous and Ohmic dissipation effects towards a non-linear stretching sheet. Two phase representation of nanofluid studied the consequence of Brownian motion along with thermophoresis. The major purpose of study is to investigates the significant role of prominent fluid parameters especially yield stress, slip velocity, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, Eckert number, Schmidt number, magnetic parameter and non-linear stretching parameter on profile of velocity, temperature distribution and concentration while keeping the other parameters under study constant. Runge-Kutta Fehlberg (RKF) approach was adopted to numerically solve the non-linear governing equations and the linked boundary conditions by use of shooting technique. In present study, we use MATLAB for finding the final outcomes and relating the concluding results for local Nusselt number -θ_δ^' (0) with extant outcomes in literature as a limiting case in the absence of thermophoresis and Brownian motion and an excellent agreement is noted. Over all the consequence of prominent fluid parameters are explained via graphs, whereas distinction of several valuable engineering quantities like skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are also tabulated. The finding of present study helps to control the rate of heat transportation as well as fluid velocity in any manufacturing processes and industrial applications to make desired quality of final product.
