Abstract

Abstract: In this article, the impacts of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on magnetohydrodynamic, heat transfer, and mass transfer flow of a Casson fluid are analyzed on a linearly stretching sheet inserted in a permeable medium along with heat source/sink and viscous dissipation. To reduce the ascendant partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, Lie group transformation is utilized. Further, the fourth‐order Runge–Kutta strategy is utilized to solve the ordinary differential equations numerically. The numerical results obtained for various parameters by employing coding in MATLAB programming are investigated and considered through graphical representation and tables. We anatomize the impacts of distinctive parameters on velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions.
