摘要
An analysis has been carried out to investigate the heat and mass transfer effects in steady axi-symmetric flow of a polymeric liquid (Maxwell fluid) between two infinite stretching disks in the presence of chemical reaction. Particular attention is to compute similarity solution of the governing nonlinear partial differential equations. The series solution of transformed nonlinear ordinary differential equations are computed via homotopy analysis method. The convergence of the developed series solution is also discussed. The quantities of interest like fluid velocity, fluid pressure, temperature, concentration, skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt and local Sherwood numbers are analyzed for the influence of embedded parameters. It is observed that the skin friction coefficient is an increasing function of Deborah number and Reynolds number. It is also observed that effects of stretching parameter on skin friction coefficient at upper and lower disks are opposite. Moreover, the heat transfer rate at lower disk is increases by increasing Deborah number. It is also observed that the surface mass transfer at both disks decreases by increasing Schmidt number.
