Abstract

Theoretical research has been done on the hydromagnetic three-dimensional nanofluid flow across an inclined stretching sheet in the presence of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. It is taken into account that there are two different kinds of water-based nanofluids that contain copper and alumina. Three-dimensional nonlinear-type similarity transformations are used to convert the governing boundary-layer equations into a collection of similarity equations, which are then numerically solved by MATLAB. Further, results obtained in some limiting cases are compared to some results that have already been published, and it is found that there is good agreement. The problem is controlled by a number of physical factors, and the impact of these factors on different flow distributions is thoroughly examined with the help of graphs and tables. It has been observed that the nanofluid has better heat transfer conductivity than the ordinary base fluid.
