Boundary Layer Flow of Casson Fluid on Exponentially Stretching Porous Surface with Radiative Heat Transfer

Abstract

An analysis of aCasson fluid flowing over a porous exponentially stretching surface with radiation has been studied. A non-Newtonian fluid model was developed for the flow and similarity analysis used in the transformation process. The model of partial differential equations was transformed into ordinary differential equations and reduced into a system of first order differential equations which was then solved using the Fourth-order Runge-Kutta algorithm alongside the Newton Raphson shooting method. The results have been presented graphically and in tabular form for various controlling parameters of the problem. It is observed that general control can be achieved by the permeability of the surface and the value of the Casson parameter.
