Investigating the Effects of Brownian Movement and Soret Effect on Convection in Magnetohydrodynamic Jeffrey Fluid Flow

Abstract

This research examined how Brownian motion and soret effect influenced convection in MHD Jeffrey stream above a horizontal porous plane, with a magnetic field present. The fluid moved above the plate at y>0, with the plate extending infinitely in the x-direction and the flux B0 applied vertically along the ordinate. Using similarity transformation, the governing coupled nonlinear rapidness, temperature, and concentration boundary layer equations were transmuted into interconnected nonlinear ODEs. The resulting 4th order and 2nd order differential equations were then transmuted into 1st order ODEs using the shooting method. These equations were numerically computed utilizing the bvp4c function in MATLAB. The effects of porosity and wall transpiration on the velocity and the effect of various parameters were studied using graphs
