Abstract

Abstract The present article aims to investigate the impacts of the thermal radiation and Lorentz force on the stagnation-point flow of third-grade liquid over a porous stretching sheet with suction. The governing equations are transformed using the similarity transformation. The resulting system of ordinary differential equations is solved using a “so-called” hybrid algorithm based on the finite difference method and the shooting method. The influence of the emerging parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles is analyzed. The results are shown in graphical and tabular forms. For the third-grade liquid flow, the velocity profile shows an inciting trend toward the Hartman number (magnetic parameter). The temperature profile shows a declining trend toward the Prandtl number and suction velocity, whereas an inciting trend towards the radiation parameter.
