Abstract

The Buongiorno nanofluid model is utilized to scrutinize the impacts of important slip mechanisms, i.e., thermophoresis diffusion and Brownian momentum on the Darcy–Forchheimer three-dimensional stagnation point flow of viscous fluid towards a flat surface with multi slips (velocity, temperature, concentration). The thermo-physical and experimental correlations for the thermal conductivity, density and dynamic viscosity of nanoliquid are implemented in the governing expressions. Nanoliquids are mostly utilized in the continuous phase liquid to enhance their thermal characteristics as coolants in transport equipment, i.e., electronic cooling system, heat exchangers and radiators. Heat transport subject to flat plate has been examined by numerous analyst. Appropriate similarity transformations which is derived from Lie point symmetry is incorporated to alter the system of governing equation into ordinary one. The transformed system is solved numerically through bvp4v (built-in-shooting) technique. The influences of important flow parameters on the dimensionless temperature, velocity, Nusselt number, concentration, wall shear stress and Sherwood number are plotted graphically and tabular form.
