Abstract
This investigation examines the Williamson nanofluid flow over an exponentially stretched surface with variable thickness. Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion (CCDD) heat flux model is applied while examining two cases of heat transfer, i.e., prescribed exponential surface temperature (PEST) and prescribed exponential heat flux (PEHF). A mathematical model of the problem based on momentum, mass, and energy conservation. The governing non-linear partial differential equation (PDEs) are converted into non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) via similarity transformations. The velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are obtained numerically.
Additionally, the impacts of numerous physical parameters of engineering significance are visually depicted through graphs and tables. It is noted that by raising the thermal relaxation parameter γ1, the temperature profile decreases. When the concentration relaxation parameter γ2 rises, then the concentration distribution also decays. When the magnetic parameter M increases, then the velocity profile decreases. For the selected numeric values of the Prandtl number Pr, the temperature profile decreases for both PEST and PEHF cases.
