Abstract

The present correspondence is conveyed to analyze the influence of heat flux and mass flux on
magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and heat transfer flow of radiative nanofluid past an exponentially
shrinking/stretching porous sheet with viscous dissipation and Ohmic heating. Heat transfer characteristics with
heat generation, thermophoresis, Brownian motion and also chemical reaction effects are addressed. To
simulation the equations of momentum, energy and nanoparticle concentration, appropriate similarity
transformation variables is employed. These transformed ordinary differential equations are solved numerically
using the Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting technique scheme together with fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The
effects of several parameters on the dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are
presented graphically. This study discloses that the variable heat and mass fluxes have important impacts on the
temperature profile and concentration. We have found that solutions exist in both shrinking and stretching
cases. It is remarked that the presence of radiation, Brownian motion, heat generation and magnetic interaction
parameter enhances the temperature and reduces the concentration profile
