Multiple slip effects on MHD nanofluid flow over an inclined, radiative, and chemically reacting stretching sheet by means of FDM

In the present study, the magnetohydrodynamic characteristics of an electrically conducting nanofluid flowing past an inclined stretching sheet have been studied numerically. The governing partial differential equations were transformed to nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) via suitable similarity variables. The wall suction/injection as well as Navier's first-order slip has been considered for velocity, temperature, and concentration at the wall. The ODEs were solved in a finite difference framework via a computer program written in Engineering Equation Solver platform. The effect of different parameters on the velocity, temperature, and concentration field has also been presented. Multiple slip flow finds its application in many practical fields such as microelectromechanical systems, nanoelectromechanical systems, flow of micro-organisms, rarefied gas flow, to name a few.
