Impact of suction and blowing on radiative heat transfer of maxwell fluid with homogenous heterogenous reactions

This study investigates the impact of thermal radiation on heat and mass transfer in a Darcy porous medium, incorporating suction and blowing effects. The Maxwell fluid model is analyzed under the influence of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and heat generation. Governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations and solved numerically using MATLAB's bvp4c solver. Key findings include that for homogeneous effects, the concentration profile decreases with suction and increases with blowing, whereas for heterogeneous effects, the concentration profile decreases in both cases. Velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, Nusselt number, skin friction, and Sherwood number are quantitatively examined. The study provides insights into fluid flow and mass transfer in porous media, relevant to applications such as enhanced oil recovery and chemical engineering. By comparing homogenization and heterogenization effects, this work addresses critical gaps in understanding their influence on fluid dynamics and reaction environments, offering guidance for improving efficiency in industrial processes.
