Heat and mass transfer in a MHD non-darcian micropolar fluid over an unsteady stretching sheet with non-uniform heat source/sink and thermophoresis

Abstract

The effect of heat and mass transfer in a MHD non-Darcian flow of a micropolar fluid over an unsteady stretching sheet with thermophoresis and non-uniform heat source/sink is discussed. The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of a uniform applied magnetic field. The arising nonlinear problem is solved by the Keller box method. The effects of various physical parameters on skin friction, local Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are presented graphically and in tabular form.
