Abstract

Diffusion-thermo and thermal-diffusion effects on unsteady, incompressible Rivlin-Ericksen rotatory convective flow of a magnetic conducting electrical fluid with time dependent suction between two vertical plates of which one is permeable are investigated. The uniform angular velocity rotates about an axis normal to the plate. The equations governing the flow model are non-dimensionalised, perturbed for simplification and solved by Adomian decomposition method. Graphical illustrations of the fluid parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration are presented and discussed. The effect of skin-friction, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are presented in tabular forms and it is discovered from the results that a rise in thermal-diffusion parameter speedup the skin-friction, while increasing diffusion-thermo parameter slowdown the skin-friction.
