Abstract:
Two-phase flow problem has attracted considerable attention of many researchers due to its potential in investigating the flow characteristics of binary mixture of fluid and solid particles. In line with this, a mathematical model of convective flow of Casson fluid embedded with solid particles (dust) is formulated in order to study the interaction between the fluid phase and dust phase under the influences of non-linear thermal radiation and convective boundary condition (CBC) which is moving over a vertical stretching sheet. Through the use of similarity transformations, governing equations of fluid and dust phases are reduced into ordinary differential equations, which are then solved numerically by employing the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg (RKF45) method. The effects of radiation parameter and temperature ratio on velocity and temperature profiles, together with skin friction coe cient and Nusselt number are presented graphically as well as in tabular form. Findings reveal that, both effects improve the motion and temperature of fluid and dust phases, respectively.
