Numerical Investigation of Heat and Mass Transport in the Flow over a Magnetized Wedge by Incorporating the Effects of Cross-Diffusion Gradients: Applications in Multiple Engineering Systems

الملخص EN

The flow over a wedge is significant and frequently occurs in civil engineering.

It is significant to investigate the heat and mass transport characteristics in the wedge flow.

Therefore, the analysis is presented to examine the effects of preeminent parameters by incorporating the cross-diffusion gradients in the energy and mass constitutive relations.

From the analysis, it is perceived that the temperature drops against a higher Prandtl number.

Due to concentration gradients in the energy equation, the temperature rises slowly.

Moreover, it is examined that the mass transfer significantly reduces due to Schmidt effects and more mass transfer is pointed against the Soret number.

The shear stresses increase due to stronger magnetic field effects.

The local thermal performance of the fluid enhances against more dissipative fluid, and DuFour effects reduced it.

Furthermore, the mass transport rate drops due to higher Soret effects and increases against multiple Schmidt number values.
