Received May 31, 2023

   Abstract. This work rigorously presents the findings of entropy generation in Casson fluid flow on a Riga plate, exposed in a radiative environment. The conceptual basis for the investigation of fluid flow is the system of governing boundary layer equations. By means of implicit finite difference procedure the solutions of boundary layer equations are acquired. Primary goal of this study manifests the optimization of entropy generation in Casson fluid flow associated with EMHD (Electro Magneto Hydro Dynamics) Lorentz force and thermal radiation. Additionally, the contours of entropy generation and Bejan number are demonstrated. Validation of present results with previously obtained results from literature is accomplished conscientiously.

Key words: Entropy, Riga plate, Casson fluid.
