Abstract

The objective of the present article is to investigate an incompressible micropolar Prandtl fluid flowing over a porous stretching sheet with the inclusion of effects like exponential temperature-dependent heat source, higher-order chemical reaction viscous dissipation, nonlinear thermal radiation, and multiple convective surface boundary conditions. The nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) for momentum, energy, micro-rotation, and concentration are discussed. These PDEs are converted into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by utilizing suitable variables and then tackled with the utilization of the nonlinear shooting method. For the numerical assessment of upcoming results comparison with already existing literature has been taken. It is canvassed that by augmenting the microrotation parameter, a boost in the angular velocity profile is seen. Moreover, The higher order of reactivity upsurges the heat transmission rate, whilst the mass convection enhances the concentration size. This gives the current model potency as a potential application in clean engine lubricants and coolant industrial liquids under the same constraints.
