Abstract
Convective mass and heat transfer study of Sakiadis flow of magneto-hydrodynamic Casson fluid past a horizontal plate is produced in this article by employing the Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model. The governing equations are transformed into a set of ordinary differential equation by applying some similarity variables. A standard second-order and a variation of third-order finite difference method are employed to find the effect of the magnetic force on the fluid system using a local similarity approach. The variation in the boundary layer with the parameters present in the problem is discussed in detail in this paper. Several dimensional forms of the system are provided and the heat map of the thermal boundary layer with different parameters are investigated further in this article. Based on the analysis, the higher the Casson parameter in the system, the lower the velocity of the fluid while the temperature and the concentration increase.
