Abstract

AbstractThis article analyses the flow across a moving surface using the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Williamson fluid model in detail, accounting for the effects of diffusion, nonlinear convection, and variable thermal conductivity. The heat transmission within the system is impacted by the changing thermal conductivity, which can also significantly alter the flow behavior. The effects of the moving surface on flow forms in porous media are explained here using the Darcy model. The similarity transformations are used to convert the underlying nonlinear partial differential equations into a collection of ordinary differential equations. The work uses a numerical RK4 technique to examine the complex incompressible fluid flow behavior on a moving surface. The study’s conclusions provide insight into the intricate flow patterns and shear layer forms brought on by the interaction of fluid and surface motion while taking varied thermal conductivity into account. The findings give important information for the design and optimization of engineering applications involving changeable thermal characteristics and advance our understanding of fluid dynamics in geophysical and atmospheric systems. Physical descriptions are used to depict how flow parameters behave in relation to velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
