Abstract

With the advancement of nuclear energy as one of the top clean energy sources, studies on radiation effects are becoming more popular. Radiation absorption is an exothermic phenomenon where radiative energy is released to the surrounding environment. This occurrence can be seen widely in the field of manufacturing, biology, medicine, and fluid mechanics. In this study, the impact of radiation absorption of fluid flow over a vertical plate that is exponentially accelerating will be investigated. Heat and mass transfer flowing vertically over the y-axis for y>0 is considered in the presence of uniform magnetic field. At t>0, temperature and concentration gradient would also increase exponentially. Governing partial differential equations are modified into a fractional model via the Caputo fractional derivative. It is then reduced to an ordinary system with Laplace transform and later solved using Zakian’s inverse Laplace transform. Solutions of velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically with varied values of fractional parameter, a, radiation absorption, Q, Prandtl number, Pr, Schmidt number, Sc, and magnetic parameter, M. Effect of radiation absorption is analysed for each varied result by comparing solutions with and without . It is observed that fluid velocity increases with  and decreases with an increase in Pr, Sc, and M. Fluid tends to reach steady state faster as a increases. Velocity profile decreases with absence of Q. While Temperature profile is unaffected by change in Q. Obtained solutions are compared with published results and it is found that they are in agreement with each other.
