Abstract
The numerical analysis is performed to examine the effects of magnetic, radiation and chemical reaction parameters on the unsteady heat and mass transfer flow past a temperature dependent viscosity of an isothermal oscillating cylinder. The governing coupled dimensional partial differential equations have been transformed into dimensionless equations by using non-dimensionless variables. The transformed momentum, energy and concentration equations are solved numerically by using explicit finite difference method. A Compaq visual Fortran 6.6a has been used to calculate the numerical solutions of this present problem. The velocity, temperature, concentration field, skin-friction, rate of heat transfer, streamlines and isotherms lines for different well-known parameters entering into the problem separately are discussed with the help of graphs.
