Abstract

In this paper we investigated the homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions in flow of Sutterby fluid. Flow is considered between two infinite parallel rotating stretchable disks. Effects of magnetohydrodynamic, heat source/sink, nonlinear mixed convection and radiative heat flux are considered. Suitable similarity transformations are utilized to convert the nonlinear partial differential equations into ordinary ones. The obtained system of equations is tackled numerically through Shooting technique. Impacts of pertinent flow variables on velocity, mass concentration and temperature are described graphically in detail. Skin friction (surface drag force) and heat transfer rate (Nusselt number) are numerically discussed and presented via tables. The obtained outcomes present that velocity of liquid particles decays with material and magnetic parameters. Temperature enhances through thermal radiation, heat generation and temperature ratio variables but it reduces through larger Reynolds number.
