Study on Radiative MHD Nanofluid Flow over a Vertically Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Buoyancy Forces with Viscous Dissipation

Abstract

The goal of this work is to investigate the flow and heat transfer properties of magneto hydrodynamic nanofluid flow over a permeable vertical stretching sheet in the presence of radiation and buoyancy effects, as well as viscous dissipation. The controlling partial differential equations were transformed into a set of non linear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation.  The implicit finite difference scheme, Keller Box Method, is then used to solve the problems numerically. A comparison of the derived Keller Box solutions to previously published work is carried out. For the different values of Magnetic field parameter, suction parameter, Prandtl number, buoyancy parameter, Schmidt number, Biot number, radiation parameter, Eckert number, Brownian motion, and Thermophoresis parameter on velocity, temperature, and nano particle volume fraction profile distribution, numerical results have been shown graphically.
