Summary: | This paper examines the steady-state momentum heat and mass transfer flow of a Casson fluid flow in the existence of a pre-exponential factor. The velocity of the fluid over a vertical stretched pin changes linearly with the axial distance when a Casson model is supposed for the viscosity. A similarity transformation eases the Navier–Stokes partial differential equations that are converted into ordinary differential equations and solved numerically for concentration, velocity, and temperature fields. Moreover, viscosity and conductivity are assumed to be dependent on the temperature profile. Results are discussed for two boundary conditions of the pin, while diffusivity is dependent on concentration. A reaction in the form of a pre-exponential factor is taken on the surface of the pin. Parameters such as the mixed convection parameter, viscosity parameter, and viscoelastic parameter are considered for the control of the flow field. In addition, the internal energy change and the Prandtl number are found to examine the temperature field inside the stretched pin, while the Schmidt number, temperature relative parameter, concentration buoyancy parameter, activation energy parameter, and chemical reaction parameter control the concentration field.
