    Heat and mass transfer analysis in magnetite molybdenum disulphide nanofluid of grade two is studied. MoS2 powder with each particle of nanosize is dissolved in engine oil chosen as base fluid. A generalized form of grade-two model is considered with fractional order derivatives of Caputo and Fabrizio. The fluid over vertically oscillating plate is subjected to isothermal temperate and species concentration. The problem is modeled in terms of partial differential equations with sufficient initial conditions and boundary conditions. Fractional form of Laplace transform is used and exact solutions in closed form are determined for velocity field, temperature and concentration distributions. These solutions are then plotted for embedded parameters and discussed. Results for the physical quantities of interest (skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number) are computed in tables. Results obtained in this work are compared with some published results from the open literature

    Magnetohydrodynamic Fluctuating Free Convection Flow of Second-Grade Fluid Flow in a Porous Medium

    The article’s objective is to study the magnetohydrodynamic fluctuating free convection flow of incompressible electrically conducting viscoelastic fluid in a porous medium in the presence of a pressure gradient. The flow is between two parallel plates; the lower plate is at rest, while the upper plate moves with a free stream velocity Ut. A uniform magnetic field of strength B0 is applied transversely to the fluid motion. The dimensional governing equations and physical initial and boundary conditions are nondimensionalized by inserting appropriate dimensionless variables. Furthermore, Lighthill’s method is used to obtain exact analytical solutions for the velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions. Finally, the influences of inserted parameters are studied through plots and discussed physically. The numerical results are calculated and presented in tabular form for skin friction. It is worth mentioning that when the viscoelastic parameter α1 tends to zero, the obtained general solution is reduced to Newtonian fluid, which shows the validity and correctness of our obtained exact solutions
