Influence of chemical reaction, radiation and heat source on separation of binary fluid mixture with Soret and Dufour effects on MHD mixed convective flow past a vertical plate

Krishnandan Verma

Abstract


The motive of the current study is to analyse the consequences of Soret, Dufour and thermal radiation on chemically reactive MHD mixed convective flow on separation of binary fluid mixture. Numerical techniques are applied to obtain the results by using Matlab solver bvp4c. Results are acquired for velocity, temperature and concentration distributions for various parameters and are portrayed graphically. The study discloses some interesting results where different parameters like Soret number, Dufour number, chemical reaction parameter helps in restricting the temperature near the plate and at the same time raising the lightweight ingredient's concentration close to the plate, ultimately assisting the separation process. Numerical data are computed for coefficient of skin-friction coefficient, Local Nusselt number as well as Sherwood number.
