Abstract

Hydromagnetic chemically reactive flow over stretching wall is discussed. Formulation is based upon consideration of Reiner-Rivlin constitutive relation. Variable thermophysical characteristics are under consideration. Radiation, heat generation and dissipation impacts exist in thermal relation. Concentration expression subject to reaction with first order is considered. Modeling with entropy optimization is made. Appropriate transformations lead to relevant differential systems. Numerical study by ND-solve is carried out. Quantities under interest are graphically analyzed. An opposite behavior detected for magnetic parameter on entropy rate and velocity. Velocity field versus magnetic field parameter decreases whereas reverse impact witnessed for variable viscosity parameter. An enhancement in thermal distribution and entropy detected for radiation. Thermal distribution enhancement is observed for generation of heat and thermal conductivity variables. Chemical reaction for concentration has decaying impact. Results of Schmidt number for concentration are similar to that of chemical reaction. Brinkman number leads to entropy rate improvement. Entropy rate upsurges against variable viscosity and mass diffusivity parameters.
