Abstract

The three-dimensional radiative flow of rotating Casson fluid over a stretching surface with magnetohydrodynamics and convective boundary conditions has been analyzed. The entropy generation analysis is also done. Governing PDEs are transformed into nondimensional ODEs using appropriate similarity transformations and are solved numerically by using RK fourth-order method with shooting technique. Influence of diverse parameters such as Casson fluid parameter β, radiation parameter R, Biot number Bi, rotation parameter λ, magnetic field parameter M, and Prandtl number Pr on temperature profile and local entropy generation Ns is analyzed and depicted through graphs.
