Abstract
The influence of the chemical interaction and dynamic micropolar convective heat transfer flow of Casson fluid caused by a moving wedge immersed in a porous material was explored. The Joule heating owing to magnetized porous matrix heating was also deliberated. The mathematical formulation for mass conservation, momentum, energy, and concentration profiles was expressed in the form of partial differential equations. The dimensionless set of ordinary equations was reduced from modeled equations via a transformation framework and then solved by the RK4 built-in function in MATLAB SOFTWARE by taking a step size of

. The physical appearance of material parameters on the flow field, temperature, concentration, drag force, and Nusselt number was discussed through plots. The numerical results were obtained for limiting circumstances. The unsteadiness factor thinned the velocity boundary layer but decreased the thermal and concentration boundary layers. By increasing the Eckert number, the nondimensional temperature profile was enhanced. The novelty of the present study is that no one has numerically investigated the magnetized Casson fluid over a moving wedge in the presence of a chemical reaction and thermal radiation.
