Effect of chemical reaction on MHD Casson natural convection flow over an oscillating plate in porous media using Caputo fractional derivative

Fractional calculus is a branch of mathematics that extends the traditional definitions of calculus to include non-integer exponents. It has been successfully used to model a variety of physical processes, including the coiling of polymers, viscoelasticity, traffic flow, diffusive transport, fluid dynamics, electromagnetic theory, and electrical networks. However, fractional calculus has not yet been widely used to study the physical properties of non-Newtonian fluids flowing over accelerating porous plates. The present research examines the unsteady Casson flow over an infinitely horizontal porous plate, MHD and porosity impacts on fluid velocity are also discussed. The major goal here is to develop analytical outcomes for the tran-sient incompressible MHD Casson flow over an accelerating porous plate. This plate is oscillating in the x-direction and infinitely large in the y-direction and fluids flowing over it at y > 0 due to oscillation. Choosing the right choice of dimensionless variables allows the model's governing equations to become dimensionless. These dimensionless differential equations of the Casson fluid are calculated by applying the Laplace transform method. On velocity, the impacts of different factors are investigated. They are time, porosity parameter, oscillation frequency of plate, magnetic parameter, and Casson fluid parameter. As we rise the Casson flow parameter values, magnetic parameter, and Prandtl number we observe that the velocity drops. In contrast to other factors, the effects of Grashof number, oscillation frequency, fractional parameter, and porosity on the velocity profile are reversed. Using Mathcad software, graphs are sketched for various values of these parameters and are thoroughly described. The fluid properties discovered signif-icant findings and disclosed several characteristics for a range of flow parameters and fractional parameter values. Increasing the values of fractional parameters is shown to improve the characteristics of fluids, and this is beneficial in fitting experimental data related to heating and cooling processes, particularly in electronic equipment.
