摘要：The present paper examines the flow behavior and separation region of a non-Newtonian electrically conducting Casson fluid through a two-dimensional porous channel by using Darcy’s law for the steady and pulsatile flows. The vorticity-stream function approach is employed for the numerical solution of the flow equations. The effects of various emerging parameters on wall shear stress and stream-wise velocity are displayed through graphs and discussed in detail. It is noticed the increasing values of the magnetic field parameter (Hartman number) cause vanishing of the flow separation region and flattening of the stream-wise velocity component. The study also reveals that the non-Newtonian character of Casson fluid bears the potential of controlling the flow separation region in both steady and pulsating flow conditions.
