Effects of double diffusion and induced magnetic field on convective flow of a Casson nanofluid over a stretching surface.

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows have several applications in a wide area of engineering such as industrialized processes, including generating MHD electrical power, processing of magnetic materials, etc. The present examination focuses on incorporating the induced magnetic field (IMF) and multiple slips on the convective MHD Casson nanofluid flow over an elongating sheet with Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects. Heat source/sink, non-linear radiation, and suction/injection impacts are added to strengthen the study. The governing equations are framed with the above assumptions and converted from PDE to ODE using a suitable transformation. The MATLAB solver "bvp5c" is engaged to solve the governing equations and the results are depicted through graphs and tables. Moreover, a good agreement is found while comparing these results with pre-existing results. It is established that an increase in the Casson fluid parameter diminishes the fluid's velocity. Also, the induced magnetic field plays a vital role in decreasing the speed of the fluid. Further, with an increase in the double-diffusive parameters, the temperature rises. As the chemical process and Schmidt number parameter elevate, the concentration drops. The convective parameter and the velocity slip parameter both enhance skin friction. The Nusselt number rises when the Prandtl number gets larger. This investigation makes major contributions to reactor safety devices, crystal growth in liquids, chemical-catalyzed reactors, geophysics, solar technology, etc.
