Stagnation Point Flow of Burgers' Fluid and Mass Transfer with Chemical Reaction and Porosity

This paper studies the influence of mass transfer in the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer stagnation point flow of Burgers' fluid over a shrinking sheet. Analysis has been carried out in the presence of first order chemical reaction. The two-dimensional flow equations are modeled and then simplified using boundary layer approach. Similarity variables are used to transform the partial differential equations into nonlinear ordinary differential equation. The resulting system is computed using homotopy analysis method (HAM). It is noted that retardation time in Burgers' fluid enhances the magnitude of the flow. The gradient of mass transfer and surface mass transfer for various interesting parameters are also tabulated and analyzed.
