Open Access Investigation of Partial Slip and Viscous Dissipation Effects on the Radiative Tangent Hyperbolic Nanofluid Flow Past a Vertical Permeable Riga Plate with Internal Heating: Bungiorno Model

The present paper focuses on the influence of electromagnetic forces on the slip flow and heat transfer of tangent hyperbolic nanofluid over a Riga-plate subject to suction, viscous dissipation, thermal radiation, internal heating and chemical reaction with activation energy. The buoyancy effect, a convective heat transfer model and zero normal wall mass flux have been considered. In view of enhancement of thermal conductivity of nanofluids, Buongiorno model comprising of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion has been implemented. It is found from the current investigation that presence of slip at the boundary contributes to accelerated fluid motion while increase in Weissenberg parameter shrinks the velocity boundary layer. Besides, increase in suction and viscous dissipation develops an ascending thermal as well as concentration boundary layers.
