Abstract

The present paper deals with the numerical analysis of the combined effect of heat generation and thermal radiation on the flow of a time dependent elastico-viscous Maxwell nanofluid passing over a stretching porous inclined surface with slip boundary. Appropriate similarity transformations are used to decorate the governing equations into a set of ordinary non-linear differential equations. The coupled ordinary equations are solved numerically using the Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting method together with the Runge-Kutta iterative technique for various values of the flow control parameters. In addition, the built-in function bvp4c of MATLAB is used to enhance the consistency of numerical results. The numerical results, demonstrated graphically, are described from the physical point of view. Finally, the effects of relevant parameters on the local skin-friction coefficient, the local Nusselt number, and the local Sherwood number, which are of material concern, are demonstrated in tabular form.
