Insights of Joule heating and chemical reaction effects on Casson-Williamson fluid in a thermally active Darcy–Forchheimer medium

This work examines the two-dimensional continuous flow of a Casson-Williamson fluid over a stretched surface under a Darcy-Forchheimer permeable medium. Several elements can affect the flow, including Joule heating, radiation, chemical reactions, thermal sources, electric field influences, and magnetic field influences. Nonlinear partial differential equations articulate the fundamental equations governing the system's dynamics in this physical model. We simplify these equations to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying requisite changes. The Keller Box technique is utilized to simplify this collection of ordinary differential equations. Velocity, temperature and concentration graphs are plotted. The velocity profiles decline with a rise in the Casson parameter, magnetic parameter, porous parameter, Weissenberg number, and velocity slip parameter. Still, the electric field parameter diminishes when the speed slip constraint is enhanced. This study primarily examines several local properties, including the skin resistance coefficient, the Nusselt number, and the Sherwood numbers. We compare our results with the current literature by computing the skin friction coefficient for different inputs of the Casson factor. Prior studies have yielded results that are fairly congruent with this one.
