Effect of viscous dissipation and suction/injection on MHD nanofluid flow over a wedge with porous medium and slip

The purpose of present study is to identify the effects of viscous dissipation and suction/injection on MHD flow of a nanofluid past a wedge with convective surface in the appearance of slip flow and porous medium. The basic non-linear PDEs of flow and energy are altered into a set of non-linear ODEs using auxiliary similarity transformations. The system of equations together with coupled boundary conditions have been solved numerically by applying Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg procedure via shooting scheme. The influence of relevant parameters on non-dimensional velocity and temperature profiles are depicted graphically and investigated in detail. The results elucidate that as enhance in the Eckert number, the skin friction coefficient increases, while heat transfer rate decreases. The outcomes also specify that thermal boundary layer thickness declines with an increase in suction parameter. Moreover, it is accelerated with augment in injection parameter. The results are analogized with the study published earlier and it creates a fine concord.
