Purpose This paper aims to address the flow of Sisko nanofluid by an unsteady curved surface. Non-uniform heat source/sink is considered for heat transfer analysis. Design/methodology/approach Numerical solutions are constructed using bvp4c procedure. Findings Pressure profile inside boundary region is increased when A and K are enhanced. Originality/value No such analysis is yet presented.
