Deskripsi

The phenomenon of convective flow with heat and mass transfer has been studied extensively due to its applications in various fields. The effects of nonlinear thermal radiation (NLTR), slip, thermal-diffusion (Soret) and diffusion-thermo (Dufour) on magenoto-hydrodynamic (MHD) flow towards a stretching cylinder in the presence of triple stratification (TSF) are investigated in this paper. The governing equations are transformed into an ODE by suitable transformations. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is used to solve the ODE. The revamping of fluid flow, and heat transfer due to the presence of the Soret and Dufour effect, concentration slip and concentration stratification are analyzed. The temperature and local Sherwood number increases as the Dufour number rises, whereas the local Nusselt number decreases. While elevating the Soret number, the Sherwood number diminishes, whereas the concentration profile rises. The thermal boundary layer thickness enhances when thermal radiation increases. The rate of solute transport reduces while the concentration slip increases.
