Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to discuss the fluid flow flowing between two vertical rotating plates. The detailed analysis of fluid flow in the presence of nanoparticles by using the Koo–Kleinstreuer–Li (KKL) model with permeable surface is discussed. Initially, the fundamental laws for momentum and energy are developed and constructed in the form of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). Afterward these PDEs are reformed to ODEs by using similarity variables. The obtained system of equations is further solved by numerical method via shooting techniques and then solved with Runge-Kutta method. The obtained results from numerical solution for rotating vertical channel flow on a permeable surface are examined in form of velocity in x, y − direction and temperature profile for several parameters such as magnetic and rotation parameters, Reynolds number. It is important to note that by increasing the values of MHD parameter, velocity in transient direction decreases. With all the cases of suction and injection, mixed convection parameter depicts the increasing behaviour along a y − direction.
