A NUMERICAL STUDY OF REACTIVE MHD FLOW OF THIRD GRADE FLUID

Abstract

The computational analysis of reactive MHD third grade fluid in an electrically conductive cylindrical channel with axial Magnetic field is carried out in this study. The weighted residual collocation method is used as a computational method of solution and a parametric study of the influence of various thermosphysical parameter is conducted and it was observed that critical values of the Frank–Kamenetskii and the third grade parameter exist for which the solution seizes to be unique.
