Abstract

In this study, an incompressible two‐dimensional Oldroyd‐B nanofluid steady flow past a stretching sheet considering the outcomes of magneto‐hydrodynamics (MHD) and porous medium with magnetic, electrical, and thermal radiation effects is investigated. Using a similarity transformation, the governing equations in the form of partial differential equations (PDEs) are converted into a nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) system. The acquired system is numerically solved by the finite element method (FEM). The effects of physical parameters like Deborah numbers “β1” and “β2”, Brownian motion “Nb”, thermophoresis parameter “Nt”, Prandtl parameter “Pr”, Lewis number “Le”, thermal conductivity “k”, dynamic viscosity “μ”, magnetic and electric effects as “M” and “E1”, and thermal radiation effect “Rd” on the flow are studied in detail. For higher Nb values, regional Nusselt numbers are increasing in magnitude. The local Sherwood number’s size rises for high Nb numbers.
