In this paper, momentum and thermal slip conditions of an MHD double diffusive free convective boundary layer flow of a nanofluid with radiation and heat source/sink effects past a vertical semi-infinite flat plate are presented. The sheet is situated in a free stream in the xz-plane and y is measured normal to the surface directing to the positive y-axis. A variable transverse magnetic field is applied parallel to the y-axis. Effects of magnetic field, heat source/sink and thermal radiation have been studied on the flow quantities in addition to others’ effects as mentioned in the literature. The governing boundary layer equations of the problem are formulated and then transformed into dimensionless equations. The resulting equations are solved numerically by the fourth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme in conjunction with the shooting method. Finally, effects of the pertinent parameters on velocity, temperature, solute concentration, nanoparticle volume fraction, skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, regular mass transfer rate and nanoparticle mass transfer rate are briefly mentioned and justified graphically and in tabular form. The results are in nice agreement with that of the papers under considerations as mentioned in the literature. |
