Abstract

This paper explores the role of viscous dissipation, Arrhenius activation energy, and thermal radiation of Williamson nanofluid flow over a permeable stretching sheet. The governing partial differential equations have been simplified through a transformation process, resulting in a set of non-linear differential equations. To find a solution for these equations, a numerical approach is employed, specifically the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. Additionally, a shooting technique is utilized to enhance the accuracy of the numerical solutions. Overall, the study involves reducing complex equations, solving them numerically, and refining the results through a combination of methods. The study investigates the impact of different physical parameters on key factors like velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient, nano particle volume fraction, and rates of mass and heat transfer. This study exhibits that activation energy parameter enhances concentration profiles, whereas fitted rate constant shows opposite behavior. The activation energy into heat transfer model allows for the optimization of heat transfer systems utilizing Williamson nano fluids.
