Abstract

This article is related with the simulation of mass and heat relocation behavior of viscous dissipative chemically reacted Casson fluid which is flowing with impact of suction, thermal conductivity and fickle viscosity. Current conductivity along with temperature dependent viscosity changes as a linear function of temperature. First of all, leading equations are converted into dimensionless form via suitable transformations. Therefore explicit finite differential technique has solved the obtained non-dimensional, non-similar mixed non-linear and partial differential equations with the support of Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6.a, a very well-known programing language. The behavior of various relevant parameters in the boundary profile velocity, temperature and concentration was considered realistically. Therefore, these variables have a diagrammatic influence on skin friction and the heat transference coefficient profiles. Stability and convergence tests are also carried out for the accuracy of implemented numerical scheme. One of the significant attainment is the Casson fluid parameter displayed quite interesting behavior on the velocity fields as it represented provoking behavior close to the boundary but it behaved oppositely away from the boundary surface. However, a comparison is also presented with good agreement for the validation of the current investigation.
