Numerical and scale analysis of non-Newtonian fluid (Eyring-Powell) through pseudo-spectral collocation method (PSCM) towards a magnetized stretchable Riga surface

A numerical simulation of a two-dimensional Eyring-Powell nanofluid flow is carried out through a Riga plate with radiative walls. Simultaneous contributions of chemical reaction and activation energy have also been taken into account on the mixed convection flow. Lubrication effects are applied by considering second order slip boundary condition in order to reduce the role of skin friction. A set of highly nonlinear and coupled differential equations are tackled with the help of “Pseudo-spectral collocation method” by developing numerical code on MATLAB. A detailed parametric study is performed that reveals that more energy adds to the system in response to slip parameter and Brownian motion of the nano-particles. Numerical results have also been compiled and tabulated. This is worth noticing that skin friction coefficient reduces due to modified Hartmann factor while heat flux is an increasing function of Prandtl number. However, there is a prominent increase in mass flux against all parameter, except activation energy.
