Abstract

The main intention of this study is to explore Maxwell fluid under the influence of thermophoresis and buoyancy forces induced by exponentially stretching sheet under chemical reaction. Cattaneo –Christov heat flux model is used to explore heat and mass characteristics with variable magnetic field, and chemical reaction. Variables of similarity were induced to transmute partial differential equations into dimensionless equations and are resolved numerically by elegant method bvp 4c. Behavior of various critical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentrations is graphically presented and discussed. Non Newtonian nature of the Maxwell fluid is clearly explored by the Maxwell parameter, it was found that for higher values of Maxwell parameter velocity profiles decreases. Thermal and solutal buoyancy forces acts in favor to velocity and thermophorotic parameter acts against concentration. Impact of Skin friction, Sherwood and Nusselt numbers on the flow configurations for diverse critical parameters are exposed realistically via graphs. Arithmetical results that obtained in the current exploration are confirmed with previously explored values in very marginal way.
