Jeffrey fluid effect on free convective over a vertically inclined plate with magnetic field: A numerical approach
Abstract
In this work, the effect of magnetohydrodynamic natural or free convective of an incompressible, viscous and electrically conducting non-newtonian Jeffrey fluid over a semi-infinite vertically inclined permeable moving plate embedded in a porous medium in the presence of heat absorption, heat and mass transfer. By using non-dimensional quantities, the fundamental governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into linear partial differential equations and these equations together with associated boundary conditions are solved numerically by using versatile, extensively validated, variational finite element method. The sway of important key parameters on hydrodynamic, thermal and concentration boundary layers are examined in detail and the results are shown graphically. Finally the results are compared with the works published previously and found to be excellent agreement.
