TY - EJOU AU - Goswami, Silpisikha AU - Sarma, Dipak TI - THE SIMULTANEOUS EFFECT OF ECKERT NUMBER AND MAGNETIC PRANDTL NUMBER ON CASSON FLUID FLOW T2 - Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer PY - 2021 VL - 16 IS - 1 SN - 2151-8629 AB - This study includes the observation of electrically conducting non-Newtonian fluid flow through a vertical porous plate considering the effect of the induced magnetic field. Our approach is numerical to investigate how the variation of magnetic Prandtl number and Eckert number effect the flow profiles. Influence of Casson parameter and Hartmann number in the profiles is also observed and depicted in graphs. The rate of heat transfer, the rate of mass transfer and the skin friction are calculated and presented in tables. A significant effect of magnetic Prandtl number and Eckert number is observed. We compared our results with some previous analytical and numerical works.
