The influence of several flow characteristics, such as thermal radiation, chemical reaction, viscous and Joule dissipations, and sheet melting, on stagnation point nano-fluid flow through a stretchy surface in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is examined. The MATLAB's bvp4c technique is used to solve the governing equations of the flow. Numerical results of the current paper are compared to the existing literature and found to be in great agreement, confirming the validity of the results. Numerical values of nanofluid velocity f′(η), temperature θ (η), and species concentration ϕ(η) are computed and presented as graphs for various values of relevant flow parameters, whilst the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are tabulated. Due to viscous dissipation, the rate of heat transmission is significantly increased. These nano-fluid flows have applications in various heat transfer processes, heat exchangers, engine cooling, vehicle thermal management etc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
