Abstract

The effect of chemical reaction on MHD free convection heat transfer flow of a nanofluid bounded a semi-infinite flat surface in a rotating frame of reference is theoretically investigated. The velocity along the plate (slip velocity) is assumed to oscillate on time with constant frequency. The analytical solutions of different water based nanofluids containing TiO2, Al2O3, Ag, Cu and CuO of the boundary layers are assumed, to keep the problem as realistic as possible. The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are solved analytically by using the small perturbation Technique. The effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration fields are presented graphically. The enhancement in magnetic parameter leads to a considerable reduction in velocity and chemical reaction parameter is predominant in controlling the concentration profile. The results obtained in the simulation of perturbation method are in well agreement with realistic situation of the scientific scenario.
