Abstract

Abstract : Theoretically, this work describes the exact solutions of fractional Casson fluid through a channel under the effect of MHD and porous medium. The unsteady fluid motion of the bottom plate, which is confined by parallel but perpendicular sidewalls, supports the flow. By introducing the dimensionless parameters and variables, the momentum equation, as well as the initial and boundary conditions, has been transformed to a dimensionless form. A mix of Laplace and Fourier transformations is used to get the exact solution for the momentum equation. The constitutive equations for Caputo-Fabrizio's time-fractional derivative are also incorporated for recovering the exact solutions of the flow problem under consideration. After recovering the exact solutions for flow characteristics, three different cases at the surface of the bottom plate are discussed, by addressing the limiting cases under the influence of the side walls. Moreover, these solutions are captured graphically, and the effects of the Reynolds number Re, fractional parameter α, effective permeability K eff, and dimensionless parameter for Casson fluid β on the fluid's motion are observed.
