Dissipative heat for the Casson fluid flow past an expanding cylindrical surface

A non-Newtonian model is developed by considering the flow of non-Newtonian Casson fluid past an expanding cylinder embedded in a porous medium. The novelty arises because of the conjunction of dissipative heat, and the additional heat source that enriches the heat transport phenomenon significantly. The application of the study is vital due to the flow of blood through the artery, a physiological study. Therefore, the study of Casson fluid plays an important role. The nonlinear partial differential equations that appeared in the formulation are now renovated to the coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. However, a numerical technique associated with shooting-based followed by Runge-Kutta fourth-order is employed for the solution of these transformed equations. The uniqueness of diverse pertinent parameters on the flow phenomena is scrutinized through graphs and numerically simulated results presented in tables. The important observations are as follows; the magnetic parameter and permeability augment the shear rate coefficients, whereas the Casson parameter rendered the opposite impact. Furthermore, the non-Newtonian Casson parameter retards the fluid temperature, and the curvature parameter significantly enhances it.
