Cattaneo–Christov flux and entropy in thermofluidics involving shrinking surface
The paper examines radiative Casson boundary layer flow over an exponentially shrinking permeable sheet in a Cattaneo–Christov heat flux environment. The sheet is placed at the bottom of the fluid‐saturated porous medium and suction is applied normally to the sheet to contain the vorticity. The radiative heat flux in the energy equation is assumed to follow the Rosseland approximation. Similarity transformation is performed to convert the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The resulting boundary value problem is treated numerically employing Runge–Kutta fourth‐order integration scheme along with the shooting method. The effects of pertinent parameters on quantities of interest are showcased graphically/in tabular form and are discussed. The dual profiles for velocity and temperature lead to a dual solution regime for entropy. It is found that critical mass suction rate and Nusselt number are substantially responsive to various parameters' values. Critical suction values decrease with a rise in Casson parameter β and permeability parameter K. Skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number show peculiar behavior for distinct branches of solutions.
