The effect of chemical reaction of a nano fluid past a permeable stretching sheet with MHD boundary layer flow and heat transfer

Abstract

A numerical evaluation and research for a boundary layer flow in a Magneto Hydrodynamic field of Nano fluid past a stretching sheet with the effect of chemical reaction, thermal radiation have been studied and analyzed systematically. The model involving the effect of Brownian motion and Thermophoresis Parameter on Nano fluid is assimilated during the analysis where transport equations are used for study. Similarity transformations are applied to convert the governing non-linear equations to a boundary value problem involving higher order ordinary differential equations. Adam's Predictor Corrector method is used to solve the equations numerically to find missing initial values to satisfy end conditions. Numerical results are obtained by studying the effect of various dimensionless parameters corresponding to different physical conditions for distributions of Velocity, Temperature, Concentration, Local Nusselt Number and Local Sherwood Number.
