Abstract
The current investigations are carried out to study the influence of the Darcy-Forchheimer relation on third-grade fluid flow and heat transfer over an angled exponentially stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium. In the current study, the applied magnetic field, Joule heating, thermaldiffusion, viscous dissipation, and diffusion-thermo effects are incorporated. The proposed model in terms of partial differential equations is transformed into ordinary differential equations using suitable similarity transformation. The reduced model is then solved numerically with the help of MATLAB built-in function bvp4c.The numerical solutions for velocity profile, temperature profile, and mass concentration under the effects of pertinent parameters involved in the model are determined and portrayed in graphical form. The graphical effects of the skin friction coefficient, the Nusselt number, and the Sherwood number are also shown. From the displayed results, we conclude that when the Joule heating parameter is enlarged, the velocity and the temperature of the fluid are increased. We observed that while enhancing the viscous dissipation parameter (Eckert number) the fluid's velocity and temperature increase but decreases the mass concentration. By increasing the values of the thermal-diffusion parameter, the velocity distribution, the temperature field, and the mass concentration increase. When the diffusion-thermo parameter rises, the velocity field and the temperature distribution increase, and the reverse scenario is seen in the mass concentration. The results of the current study are compared with already published results, and a good agreement is noted to validate the current study.
