Zusammenfassung:The geometry under consideration for this flow problem, namely paraboloid surface is similar to aircraft and car bonnet, bullet shape, front shape of submarine, rockets and these types of are useful in manufacturing of formula F1 cars and airplanes. The flow of fluid over paraboloid surface has several applications in space science, industries, mechanical works and architecture. The aim of this study is to explore the Cattaneo-Christov heat and mass flux model in steady 2D couple stress fluid flow with variable thermo-physical characteristics near the parabolic surface. The effects of enthalpy and activation energy are also taken into consideration. The stretching in the layers of fluid is assumed at the surface of body. The problem is amended by using the law of conservation of momentum, energy and mass transfer. The non-linear governing partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations by using self-similar form with similarity transformation. The resulting ODE's are numerically solved by bvp4c method. The conclusion indicates that the fluid moves quickly due to higher inputs of couples stress parameter and buoyancy parameter while the viscosity coefficient creates restriction in the fluid motion. The transference analysis of temperature and concentration enhances for higher impacts of thermal conduction and mass diffusivity coefficient. The thermal concentration relaxation parameters are the source of decline in the concentration and temperature of fluid. The heat transmission rate is maximum and mass transfer is minimum due to raising values of Dramkholer number. The impression of all parameters on different fields is listed in discussion section.
