Abstract

The Brownian motion and thermophoretic impacts attained a noticeable intention of the recent researchers because these factors trigger the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid. In this study, we focus on radiation and Soret effects on a slanted stretchable sheet. Buongiorno’s model is taken into account with Brownian motion and thermophoretic effects. Compatible transformations are implemented to attain the nonlinear differential equation from the boundary value PDE’s. The physical quantities of practical interest are treated by graphically as well as numerically. For numerical results, the Keller box technique is applied. The numerical outcomes through tabulated magnitudes performed a good settlement with already existing results. Energy transfer rate against involved factor exhibited via graphs. Energy and mass transport rates enhance against increment in Soret factor while skin friction diminishes. Moreover, Nusselt number and Sherwood number decrease on improving inclination while skin friction increases.

Highlights

Due to the ideal potential of heat and mass exchange impacts, the nanofluids have pulled in consideration of analysts worldwide. ese fluids are the mixture of nano-sized particles along with base fluids. e main purpose to mix the nanoparticles into base fluids is to enhance the thermal conductivity
The flow of the Casson nanofluid over an inclined surface was discussed numerically by Rafique et al [1]
Is work focuses on establishing the basis for a novel study on thermal investigation in solar magnetohydrodynamic nanotechnology. e approach empowers us with great flexibility to dissect the Brownian motion and thermophoretic impact on the flow of micropolar nanofluid with thermal radiations and Soret impacts on the inclined geometry. e physical quantities of practical interest such as energy exchange, velocity, skin friction, and concentration species are elaborated in graphical and tabulated form
