Abstract

The present paper is concerned with the study of flow, heat and mass transfer behavior of Casson fluid past of an exponentially permeable stretching surface in the presence of magnetic field, thermal radiation and chemical reaction. We presented dual solutions by comparing the results of the Non-Newtonian fluids with the Newtonian fluid. If the partial differential equation is nonlinear, numerical methods have been developed to solve linear and nonlinear differential equations. A widely used algorithm is the shooting method. The influence of involved parameters on dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are displayed graphically coupled with comprehensive discussions. Also, to verify the numerical results, a virtual analysis is carried out that ensures the authenticity of the results. Variation of skin friction coefficient, the rate of heat transfer and Sherwood number are also performed. Some already existing solutions of the particular cases of the same problem are also verified as the special cases of the solutions obtained here.
