Abstract
Abstract The dynamics of viscous copper nanofluid double diffusion problem driven at three-dimensional stagnation point flow induced by heat generation under microgravity environment was analyzed numerically. The nature of the flow was interpreted into a system of differential equation. By imposing Keller box approach, profiles and physical quantities of principle interest result were analyzed. Profiles results showed a natural convection pattern and satisfied the boundary condition. Besides that, curvature ratio gives a significant effect on skin friction. Larger size of frequency of oscillation reduce the peak values of all physical quantities. The analysis on Nusselt shows an enhancement with the additional of nanoparticles into the conventional fluid. Meanwhile, additional resistance at the boundaries was produced due to the presence of copper nanoparticles. A heat source was produced from the heat generation effect inside the fluid reduced the rate of heat transfer at the body due to the additional temperature at the fluid.
