Abstract

The computational investigations on mixed convection stagnation point flow of Jeffrey nanofluid over a stretched surface is presented herein. The sheet is placed vertical over which nanomaterials flowing upward direction. Arrhenius activation energy and binary chemical reaction are accounted. Nonlinear radiative heat flux, MHD, viscous dissipation, heat source/sink and Joule heating are considered. Initially the nonlinear flow expressions are converted to ordinary one and then tackled for series solutions by HAM. Consider flow problem are discussed for velocity, temperature and concentration through various flow variables. Furthermore, coefficient of skin friction, Sherwood number and heat transfer rate are computed graphically.
