Abstract

Present work reports chemically reacting Darcy-Forchheimer flow of nanotubes. Water is utilized as base liquid while carbon nanotubes are considered nanomaterial. An exponential stretchable curved surface flow is originated. Heat source is present. Xue relation of nanoliquid is employed to explore the feature of Cnts (single and multi-wall). Transformation technique is adopted in order to achieve non-linear ordinary differential systems. The governing systems are solved numerically. Effects of involved parameters on flow, temperature, concentration, heat transfer rate (Nusselt number) with addition of skin friction coefficient are illustrated graphically. Decay in velocity is noted with an increment in Forchheimer number and porosity parameter while opposite impact is seen for temperature. Moreover, role of Mwcnts is prominent when compared with Swcnts.
