Abstract
Heat transportation is a novel prospective in many thermal processes and presents dynamic applications in industrial and thermal polymer processing optimization. The importance of heat transportation is noted in heat exchangers, production of crude oils, combustion, petroleum reservoirs turbine systems, thermal systems, porous media, modeling of resin transfer nuclear reactions etc. In view of such thermal applications the main objective here is to examine entropy in unsteady magnetohydrodynamic of Casson fluid flow. Radiation in addition to dissipation and ohmic heating are analyzed. Entropy is scrutinized employing thermodynamic second law. Characteristics of Soret and Dufour are also examined. Main objective here is to examine irreversibility. Dimensionless version of differential system is obtained through suitable variables. The obtained partial differential system is solved through numerical scheme (Finite difference method). Physical features of fluid flow, temperature, entropy optimization and concentration have been explained. Variations of parameters on drag force, Nusselt number and solutal transfer rate are graphically discussed. Higher fluid parameter leads to improve in velocity and entropy rate. Larger values of radiation parameter boost up thermal field. Entropy rate and velocity have reverse trend for magnetic field. An intensification for concentration is found through Soret number. Higher approximation of Reynold number enhances skin friction and velocity. Thermal transfer rate is augmented versus radiation and magnetic variables.
