摘要
The impacts of temperature dependent viscosity on radiative Maxwell fluid flow over an autocatalytic stretching sheet with chemical reaction is investigated in this work. Soret effect is invoked in the present study. The strongly nonlinear model equations are changed into system of ordinary differential structure with the help of proper non-dimensional quantities. The fourth order Runge-Kutta Fehlberg (RKF) numerical method is utilized to solve the transformed system of ODEs. The behaviors of flow, thermal and solutal fields under the influence of different model parameters are presented and discussed in detail via graphs and tables. In this study, higher values of Frank-Kamenetskii parameter and permeability parameter is found to escalate temperature distribution. Also, concentration distributions drop rapidly by varying Schmidt number but enhances in the presence of Soret number. Comparison of the present results with previous study is examined and excellent concurrence is observed. The present study is relevant in engineering applications where the formation of boundary layer is to be delayed or enhanced and in oil recovery processes. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature India Private Limited.
