Abstract

This research investigates the mixed convection of an incompressible, non-Newtonian radiating Casson fluid in a Darcy-Forchheimer porous medium over a slippery, permeable, stretching surface. The study further examines the influences of thermal buoyancy and viscous dissipation. Through appropriate similarity transformations, the governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. These nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved using MATLAB with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method combined with the shooting technique. This work aims to assess the influence of Casson parameter, porosity parameter, radiation parameter, suction parameter, Eckert number, mixed convection parameter, local inertia coefficient, Prandtl number and slip parameter on the velocity and temperature. The findings show that increasing Casson parameter results in decreased velocity and temperature, while an increase in the radiation parameter leads to a rise in temperature. Velocity decreases with an increase in slip parameter for velocity, but as the similarity variable exceeds 2.4, it experiences a slight increase due to the stretching effect of the sheet. Conversely, temperature is directly proportional to slip parameter for velocity.
