Transpiration Effects on MHD Flow Over a Stretched Cylinder with Cattaneo-Christov Heat Flux with Suction or Injection.

A theoretical analysis is performed for investigating the flow and heat transfer characteristics of Maxwell fluid over a stretching cylinder with Cattaneo-Christov, heat source or sink, and suction/injection. The solution to the transformed similarity equations is derived using Runge-Kutta fourth-order method along shooting technique. The present result for both the surface shear stress and the local Nusselt number is validated with the previously published results, while a very sound agreement is attained. The impacts of the distinct parameters related to this study are presented in graph and tabular form, respectively. Moreover, the local Nusselt number and surface shear stress have been computed for both the suction and injection cases. It is found that strengthening the thermal relaxation parameter value increases the heat transfer rate. The dimensional heat transfer rate is observed being rising in the injection case when compared with the suction case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
