Source abstract
Abstract This study investigates the influence of Joule heating and viscous dissipation on the MHD boundary layer flow of a chemically reactive Jeffrey fluid over a wedge. The Jeffrey fluid flow has significant importance in numerous engineering applications and industrial processes. The mathematical model of the problem consists of coupled partial differential equations associated with boundary conditions. These governing equations are simplified to nonlinear ordinary differential equations applying relevant similarity transformations. The model has been solved by the Keller‐box method implemented in MATLAB software. To validate the MATLAB codes of the model, a comparative study has been performed and presented with previously published results.The effects of numerous physical parameters on fluid velocity, temperature, and concentration are demonstrated through graphs. The non‐dimensional shear stress, mass, and heat transfer at the wedge are computed and explained numerically for various physical parameter values. The Deborah number has a significant impact on fluid velocity. The Deborah number significantly affects fluid velocity, reducing it as its value rises, while fluid temperature shows the opposite trend.
