Abstract

In this study, we addressed the impact of magnetic field on fluid flow and heat transfer of an in compressible Carreau fluid over exponentially stretching sheet in addition with fluid and dust particle suspension. Thermal radiation and non-uniform heat source/sink were included to develop heat transport phenomena. Dusty fluids have various applications such as processing of material, nuclear heat treatment, cooling process, treatment of waste water etc. The relevant governing equations are converted into ordinary differential equation using similarity transformation the transformed ordinary differential equations are then solved numerically by shooting technique along with Runge-Kutta method The effect of certain parameters on the dimensionless velocity and temperature are presented graphically. The physical quantities of the flow such as the friction factor and Local Nusselt number were calculated. It was found from the study that the velocity slip parameter increases the temperature profiles.
