Chemical reaction effects on micropolar nanofluid flow over a mhd radiative stretching surface with thermal conductivity

Abstract: 

In this paper, an analysis is presented the effects of chemical reaction parameter variable thermal conductivity and radiation on the flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting micropolar nanofluid over a continuously stretching surface with varying temperature in the presence of a magnetic field.  The surface temperature is assumed to vary as a power-law temperature. The governing conservation equations of mass, momentum, angular momentum and energy are converted into a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations by means of similarity transformation. The resulting system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations is solved by implicit finite difference method. The results are analyzed for the effect of different physical parameters such as magnetic parameter, microrotation parameter, Prandtl number, radiation parameter, Eckert number, thermal conductivity parameter, Brownian motion parameter, Thermophoresis parameter, Lewies number, surface temperature parameter on the velocity, angular velocity, temperature and concentration fields are presented through graphs.  Physical quantities such as skin friction coefficient, local heat, local mass fluxes are also computed and are shown in table.
