Abstract

The foremost importance of this presentation is to explore the nonlinear thermal radiation on a Williamson liquid model on a wedge in the company of a heat generation/absorption which is not uniform. An aligned magnetic field, Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis aspects are also investigated. The flow and temperature equations are derived and solved by Runge–Kutta based MATLAB bvp4c solver. Results for different flow characteristics are plotted through graphs and discussed in detail. The wall temperature raises as temperature ratio parameter increases and results in a deep penetration for temperature. The concentration of the species seems to be increased with Brownian diffusion and radiation.
