Abstract

This article presents the effects of nonlinear thermal radiation and induced magnetic field on viscoelastic fluid flow toward a stagnation point. It is assumed that there exists a kind of chemical reaction between chemical species A and B. The diffusion coefficients of the two chemical species in the viscoelastic fluid flow are unequal. Since chemical species B is a catalyst at the horizontal surface, hence homogeneous and heterogeneous schemes are of the isothermal cubic autocatalytic reaction and first order reaction respectively. The transformed governing equations are solved numerically using Runge–Kutta integration scheme along with Newton’s method. Good agreement is obtained between present and published numerical results for a limiting case. The influence of some pertinent parameters on skin friction coefficient, local heat transfer rate, together with velocity, induced magnetic field, temperature, and concentration profiles is illustrated graphically and discussed. Based on all of these assumptions, results indicate that the effects of induced magnetic and viscoelastic parameters on velocity, transverse velocity and velocity of induced magnetic field are almost the same but opposite in nature. The strength of heterogeneous reaction parameter is very helpful to reduce the concentration of bulk fluid and increase the concentration of catalyst at the surface.

1. Introduction

The study of fluid flow over a horizontal stretchable surface has extensive applications in pharmaceutical companies (i.e. medicinal pharmaceutical technology), production of polythene and paper, polymer extrusion, cooling of elastic sheets, fiber technology, production of plastic materials, science and engineering technology. It is worth mentioning that almost all the fluids mentioned above are materials (fluids) which exhibit viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. Viscoelastic fluid flow over a stretching surface was investigated by Rajagopal et al. [1]. Chethan et al. [2] examined the slip condition on viscoelastic liquid flow over an exponentially stretching surface. Rashidi et al. [3] analyzed the effects of Soret and Dufour on magnetohydrodynamic viscoelastic fluid flow past a vertical stretching surface. Singh and Agarwal [4] studied the variable thermal conductivity effect on the flow of viscoelastic fluid over a permeable exponentially stretching surface. Hayat et al. [5] discussed the boundary layer analysis of viscoelastic nanofluid flow over a stretching cylinder. A stagnation point is a point in a flow field where the local velocity is zero. In fluid dynamics, when this occurs at the surface of an object, the fluid flow is often brought to rest. To induce such fluid to flow, Paul Richard Heinrich Blasius in 1908 considered the report of Prandtl Ludwig together with the principle of stretching fluid layers at the free stream [6]. It is pertinent to note that in the work of Blasius, the fluid motion is maintained by the stretching of fluid layers at the free stream. Thereafter, Hiemenz [7] presented two dimensional stagnation-point flow over a flat plate. Abolbashari et al. [8] presented the analysis of non-Newtonian fluid flow induced by stretching sheet. Heat transfer characteristics of viscoelastic fluid past a stretching surface in the presence of thermal radiation and viscous dissipation was presented by Cortell [17]. The dynamics of micropolar fluid at constant vortex viscosity toward a stagnation point formed on a melting stretchable surface can be seen in Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle K\underset{\cdot}{o}r\acute{\imath }k\underset{\cdot}{o}} [9]. Just of recent, Sandeep et al. [10] discussed the dual solutions of governing equation which models Stagnation-point flow of a Jeffrey nanofluid over a stretching surface with induced magnetic field and chemical reaction.

It is a well-known fact that all bodies radiate heat, the higher the temperature the greater the radiation such that when two bodies at different temperatures are within each other the hotter body will supply heat to the colder body until they reach the same temperature. This scientific statement is known as Prevost’s Theory of Exchange, often referred to as the starting point from which the modern physical theory of thermal radiation was developed in the 19th century; for more details, see Putley [11]. Considering this mode of transfer of heat energy, Raju et al. [12] discussed the effect of radiation on the flow past a stretching sheet in the presence of inclined magnetic field. Heat transfer characteristics of MHD flow over a nonlinear stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation were studied by Cortell [13]. In the study conducted by Ganji et al. [14] on effects of thermal radiation within magnetohydrodynamics nanofluid flow between two horizontal rotating plates, it was pointed out that Nusselt number has direct relationship with radiation parameter. Heat transfer analysis of magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid flow over a stretching/shrinking surface was scrutinized by Sandeep et al. [15]. Raju et al. [18] analyzed the thermal radiation effect on ferrofluid flow past a flat plate in the presence of aligned magnetic field. It is also important to remark that in most of the studies mentioned above, nonlinear temperature (Rosseland approximation) is simplified by using Taylor series expansion and the higher order terms are truncated. Consequently, the non-dimenzionalization and parametrization of thermal radiation model become a simple task. Physically, the electromagnetic radiation that occurs in the fluid as it flows during some of the industrial processes may not be realistic if interpreted as linear. In addition, the Taylor series expansion may not give full details of the effect. In view of this, nonlinear thermal radiation has been a newly introduced model for accurate explanation. In another related studies on unsteady magnetohydrodynamic typical fluid flow and micropolar fluid flow past a vertical porous plate moving through a binary mixture in an optically thin environment by Animasaun [19] and [20]. The radiative heat flux term that models the thermal radiation in the flow is taken as fourth power of temperature in the energy equation; dimensionless equation was obtained without using Taylor series expansion. Hayat et al. [16] studied the effects of nonlinear thermal radiation on the three-dimensional nanofluid flow past a stretching sheet.

A chemical reaction has occurred when two or more reactants yield product. If the product of a chemical reaction is a catalyst which even speeds up the chemical reaction, then such chemical reaction is said to have passed through autocatalysis. A chain of autocatalytic reactions was first proposed by Lotka [21]. Sapre [22] investigated the problem of simultaneous chemical reaction and diffusion in the presence of catalyst. Williams et al. [23] reported that this kind of reaction can occur between bulk of fluid and surface of a plate in which the boundary layer is formed upon. Merkin [24] adopted an order of magnitude (scaling analysis) together with the same assumptions of large Reynolds number on Navier–Stoke’s equation as reported by Ludwig Prandtl; and then presented a simple model for the interaction between homogeneous (in the bulk of fluid) and heterogeneous (at the surface) reaction involving two chemical species A and B within a thin layer formed on a surface in fluid flow. Explanation on the case of unequal diffusion coefficients of chemical species A and B can be found in Chaudhary and Merkin [25]. Mabood et al. [26] analyzed the flow of chemically reacting fluid over a stretching sheet. Boundary layer analysis of MHD Casson fluid flow over a permeable stretching sheet in the presence of chemical reaction was depicted by Gireesha et al. [27]. Animasaun [28] considered the case of nth order of chemical reaction in Casson fluid flow with temperature dependent plastic dynamic viscosity. Khan and Pop [29] investigated a case of homogeneous–heterogeneous reaction which occurs in viscoelastic fluid flow. A homogeneous–heterogeneous reaction on Powell–Eyring fluid flow over a stretching sheet was analytically discussed by Hayat et al. [30]. Bachok et al. [31] studied the homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions on stagnation-point flow past a stretching surface.

Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is the science of motion of electrically conducting fluid in the presence of magnetic field. It was deduced that on 3rd of October 1942, a scientist/Engineer called H. Alfven reported that if a conducting liquid is placed in a constant magnetic field, motion of the liquid may give rise to a force called electromotive force (e.m.f.) which produces electric currents. A kind of electromotive force which induces current and also tends to generate what is called Lorentz force; further reported that owing to the magnetic field, these currents give mechanical forces which change the state of motion of the liquid [32]. Ever since then, Engineers and researchers have reported its application in fusion reactors, dispersion of metals, metallurgy, design of MHD pumps, MHD generator and MHD flow meters, etc. Liron and Wilhelm [33] stated that MHD boundary layer flow of a viscous and electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is observed in various technical systems employing liquid metal and plasma flow. Sandeep and Sulochana [34] illustrated an unsteady micropolar fluid flow over a stretching/shrinking surface in the presence of magnetic field. The heat transfer analysis of Casson fluid flow past a permeable exponentially stretching surface with magnetic field was discussed by Raju et al. [35]. Micropolar fluid flow over a linear stretching surface with magnetic field was analytically studied by Siddheshwar and Mahabaleshwar [36]. Magnetic Reynolds number is an important parameter in the study of effects of induced magnetic field on fluid flow. Rashidi et al. [37] solved a system of nonlinear differential equations modeling the flow of a Newtonian magnetic lubricant squeeze film with magnetic induction and reported the effect of magnetic Reynolds number. Transient magnetohydrodynamics free convection flow of four different types of water based nanofluid past a vertical surface is presented by Freidoonimehr et al. [38].

Motsa and Animasaun [39] considered a case in which the order of magnitude of diffusion-thermo (Dufour effect) is more significant in boundary layer fluid flow in the presence of Lorentz force at initial unsteady stage and final steady stage. Sheikholeslami and Rashidi [40] adopted Control Volume-based Finite Element Method to simulate nanofluid flow in the presence of a non-uniform magnetic field. The aim of the study was extended in [41] and it was concluded that increasing magnetic number leads to augmentation of the Nusselt number. In most cases of electrically conducting fluid flow in the presence of magnetic field, the magnetic Reynolds number of the flow may not be realistic to be assumed small in magnitude; hence, the induced magnetic field is not negligible. Ali et al. [42] examined the induced magnetic effect on stagnation-point flow toward a stretching surface and concluded that the induced magnetic parameter develops the momentum boundary layer thickness. An induced magnetic field effect on stagnation point flow of a nanofluid past a stretching surface was considered by Pal and Mandal [43]. In all the literatures mentioned above, it is worth noticing that little attention has been given to investigate the motion of viscoelastic fluid toward a stretching sheet in the presence of nonlinear thermal radiation. In addition, no attempt has been made to investigate the case of unequal diffusivities of homogeneous–heterogeneous reaction which occurs in the viscoelastic fluid as it flows toward a stagnation point and thereafter. The nonlinear governing equations that model the fluid flow are considered in this study and non-dimensionalized by using suitable similarity variables. The transformed governing equations are solved numerically via Runge–Kutta along with Newton’s method. The influence of selected dimensionless parameters on velocity, induced magnetic field, temperature and concentration profiles along with the friction factor and local Nusselt number is illustrated graphically and presented in tabular form.

2. Mathematical analysis

Consider a steady, electrically conducting viscoelastic fluid flow toward a stagnation point and thereafter along a horizontal stretchable surface in the presence of induced magnetic field and homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions.

The physical model along with the coordinate system is shown in Fig. 1.

The magnetic Reynolds number of the viscoelastic flow is not small in magnitude; hence, the induced magnetic field is highly significant.

It is also assumed that an induced magnetic field is applied in Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle y} -direction and the parallel component Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle B_1}

respectively, where c and a are positive constants which represent stretching rate. It is assumed that there exists a homogeneous–heterogeneous reaction between chemical species A and B as the viscoelastic fluid flows toward a stagnation point and thereafter. This kind of chemical reaction is referred to as autocatalytic since chemical specie B is known as catalyst. Following Merkin  [24], it is assumed that within the boundary layer we have isothermal cubic autocatalytic reaction given by

3. Numerical procedure

The nonlinear ordinary differential equations Eqs. (15), (16), (17), (18) and (19) subject to boundary conditions Eqs. (20) and (21) are solved numerically using Runge–Kutta and Newton’s method given by Mallikarjuna et al. [45]. We assumed the unspecified initial conditions for unknown variables, and the transformed first order differential equations are integrated numerically as an initial valued problem to a given terminal point. We can check the accuracy of the assumed missing initial condition, by comparing the calculated value of the different variables at the terminal point with the given value by the existence of the difference in improved values such that the missing initial conditions must be obtained. The calculations are carried out by a program in MATLAB package.

As magnitude of parameter M   increases, the lorentz force dominates and tends to increase the viscous forces. This effect consequently leads to decrease in the longitudinal velocity of transverse velocity of inducing magnetic field Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle g(\eta )}

decreases with an increase in the magnitude of R. The effect of radiation parameter R is to reduce the temperature significantly in the flow region. Thermal radiation is found to be energy transfer by the emission of electromagnetic waves which carry heat energy away as the fluid flows. Since the increase in radiation parameter means increase in the rate at which heat energy is released from the flow region, this accounts for decrease in temperature distribution as the magnitude of parameter R increases. It is very important to remark that this effect actually depends on the definition of parameter R  ; here, it is defined as the ratio of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle 3\kappa k^{{_\ast}}}

. In most published articles, if thermal radiation parameter is defined otherwise, increase in the parameter leads to increase in temperature. Certainly, this is not realistic (i.e. can temperature still increase when energy is transferred out of the fluid domain?). This may depend on the physical model.

5. Conclusions

This study deals with the induced magnetic field effect on viscoelastic fluid flow past a stretching sheet in the presence of nonlinear thermal radiation and homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions. The arising sets of governing nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are transformed into a set of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations using self-similarity transformations, which are then solved numerically. The conclusions are as follows:

  • the nonlinear thermal radiation improves the temperature profiles and suppresses the rate of heat transfer. At fixed value of R  , decrease in temperature distribution from the wall to the free stream is minimum when magnitude of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle {\theta }_w}
is small compared to maximum pattern of decreasing when magnitude of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle {\theta }_w}
is large.
  • variation in the magnitude of ratio of diffusion coefficient is an increasing function of concentration of the catalyst only within the fluid domain.
  • stretching ratio parameter and viscoelastic parameter have tendency to enhance the heat transfer rate. The effects of increasing magnitude of Γ   on Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle f^{{'}}(\eta )\mbox{,}g(\eta )\mbox{,}g^{{'}}(\eta )}
and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle g^{{''}}(\eta )}
are the opposite of the effects of increasing M on the same set of profiles.
  • an increase in the magnetic field parameter depreciates the friction factor coefficient and heat transfer rate.
  • strength of heterogeneous reaction parameter is very helpful to reduce the concentration of bulk fluid Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle G(\eta )}
and enlarge the concentration of the catalyst Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://test.scipedia.com:8081/localhost/v1/":): {\textstyle H(\eta )}
at the surface.
  • at a constant value of Γ, transverse velocity profile is an increasing function of velocity ratio λ.
