Unsteady nonlinear convective Darcy flow of a non-Newtonian fluid over a rotating vertical cone

A numerical model on unsteady nonlinear convective flow of a Casson fluid past a vertical rotating cone in a porous medium has been developed. The conservations laws are transformed into non-linear problem using convenient similarity transformations. The resultant equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta based shooting technique for the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions, highlighted by physical parameters, Casson fluid parameter, unsteady parameter, non-linear temperature and concentration effects and discussed in detailed with graphical aid. Increasing non-linear temperature and concentration parameters accelerates the tangential velocity while normal and azimuthal velocities are decreased. Temperature and concentration distributions are also decreased as well. This study finds applications in industries like pharmaceutical industries, aerospace technology and polymer production etc.
