Abstract
This work examines the effects of non-linear thermal radiation and Joule heating on MHD three-dimensional visco-elastic nanofluid flow due to a surface stretching in lateral directions. A coupled nonlinear differential system is generated from the boundary layer equations by using self-similarity variables and is then solved numerically by using most powerful shooting technique with Runge Kutta method of fourth order. The computational results for the flow variables are plotted graphically and are discussed in detail for various governing parameters that emerged in the analysis. It is observed that the momentum of the visco elastic nanofluid is better than that of a viscous fluid. Thicker thermal and concentration boundary layers are formed for increasing nonlinear thermal radiation and temperature ratio parameters. Also the results are in very good agreement with the outcomes available in the literature as a particular case. This model may play a significant role in the field of manufacturing and engineering applications.
