Abstract
In this article, entropy generation on viscous nanofluid through a horizontal Riga plate has been examined. The present flow problem consists of continuity, linear momentum, thermal energy, and nanoparticle concentration equation which are simplified with the help of Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation. The resulting highly nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are solved numerically by means of the shooting method (SM). The expression of local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are also taken into account and discussed with the help of table. The physical influence of all the emerging parameters such as Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Brinkmann number, Richardson number, nanoparticle flux parameter, Lewis number and suction parameter are demonstrated graphically. In particular, we conferred their influence on velocity profile, temperature profile, nanoparticle concentration profile and Entropy profile.

Summary
Nanofluids with heat transfer have received much interest due to their wide range of applications in engineering and industrial processes. Zeeshan et al [17] examined the non-Darcy mixed convection flow under the effect of magnetic field through permeable a stretching surface He considered the effects of ohmic heating and obtained a numerical solution with the help of the shooting method. Abolbashari et al [20] studied the entropy generation on unsteady MHD flow of nanofluid towards a permeable stretching surface. Qing et al [22] studied numerically the entropy generation on MHD Casson nanofluid through a porous stretching surface. They found that entropy generation enhances due to the influence of all the physical parameters.
