Slip flow over a non-Newtonian fluid through a Darcy-Forchheimer medium: Numerical approach

Abstract

This work focused on slip flow over a non-Newtonian nanofluid fluid flow past a stretching sheet with particles-liquid suspension. The convective boundary condition is taken into account. Similarity transformations are utilized to reduce the nonlinear partial differential equations into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme is used to get the numerical solution. Important parameters are analyzed through graphs and skin friction coefficient. Nusselt numbers are presented in tables. Investigation reveals that slip parameter decreases the velocity field and Biot number increases the temperature field.
