The impact of certain separate characteristics, including the porosity parameter, reaction rate parameter, and viscoelastic parameters of steady convective diffusion across a rectangular channel, has been investigated in this article. The model’s momentum and concentration equations were developed using the similarities technique, and the numerically finite volume method was combined with the Beavers and Joseph slip conditions. Various graphs have been used to get insight into various parameters of the problem on velocity and concentration. The cartilage surfaces are assumed to be porous, and the viscosity of synovial fluid varies with hyaluronate (HA) content.
