Aiding and opposing of mixed convection Casson nanofluid flow with chemical reactions through a porous Riga plate

In the present study, simultaneous effects of the chemical reaction and electromagnetohydrodynamic on the Casson nanofluid over porous Riga plate has been investigated. The governing flow problem consists of linear momentum, thermal energy, and nanoparticle concentration equation, which is modeled with the help of Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation. Shooting method is employed to obtain the solution of the resulting nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equation. The behavior of the velocity profile, temperature profile, and nanoparticle concentration profile are discussed against modified Hartman number, porosity parameter, chemical reaction parameter, Prandtl number, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Schmidt number, nanoparticle flux parameter, and Richardson number, respectively. The governing flow is also discussed for aiding and opposing flow by considering the negative and positive values of the modified Hartman number. The Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also computed numerically. Moreover, it is also found that the porosity parameter also enhances the velocity profile. A numerical comparison is also presented with previously published results to ensure the validity of the current methodology and results.
