Abstract

This attempt concentrates on impact of chemically reactive flow of upper-convected Maxwell liquid. Nonlinear slip condition for Maxwell fluid is employed. The processes of heat and mass transfer through theory of Cattaneo–Christov flux are studied. Ordinary differential systems have been considered. Convergent solutions are constructed for the governing equations. Incoming nonlinear modeled problems have been computed for the velocity, temperature and concentration. The impact of emerging variables, namely Deborah number (β), Schmidt number (Sc), Thermal relaxation parameter (γ), Prandtl number (Pr) and chemical reaction parameter (δ) on quantities of interest is graphically investigated. Both temperature and concentration fields decay when thermal relaxation and chemical reaction parameters are increased.
