Abstract

This article examines the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) flow of nanofluid bounded by a stretching surface. The slip conditions are utilized in the present analysis. The involved differential systems are solved for the velocity, temperature and mass fraction. Graphical and numerical results are reported for the analysis of various parameters of interest entering into the modeled problems. Combined effects of thermal and concentration jump are analyzed. Various tables are constructed to show the rheological effects of different physical parameters. Streamlines are plotted showing the rheology for the slip and no slip flow regime. Plots of skin friction are also prepared for the slip and magnetic field effects.
