Numerical simulations of irreversibility for nonlinearly radiative and chemically reactive flow of Maxwell fluid by Debozani Borgohain

“…Also, unsteadiness in the flow, porosity and magnetic effects enhance the shearing stress on the surface leading to greater surface friction while solar radiation and surface heating due to nonlinearity in radiative force favour the heat transferable rate leading to an improvement in convection rate. These inferences can be helpful in the development of proper thermal electronic and industrial devices with solar radiation applications.…”
