Forced Convection Heat transfer of MHD Casson fluid in non Darcy Porous media

Abstract

            In the present paper, we consider MHD Casson fluid forced to flow over the flat plate by external means such as a pump or fan in Non-Darcy porous media. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into system of first order nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations, Implicit finite difference scheme is utilized to solve the system of ODEs which is called Keller Box method. The flow of fluid and heat transfer rate is analyzed through local skin friction and local heat transfer parameters. At different values of Casson parameter, Magnetic parameter, Porosity parameter, first order porous resistance, second order porous resistance and Prandtl number, the temperature and velocity behavior is examined. Using the final equations for velocity and temperature the graphs are highlighted using MAT Lab.  The results are correlated with the existing results and found to be excellent in agreement.
