The objective of the present study is to analyze the stagnation point flow of Jeffrey nanofluid on the boundary layer flow and heat transfer over a stretching surface in the presence of nanoparticle fractions. The relevant problem formulation is presented in the presence of radiation and melting phenomenon. The effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis occur in the transport equations. Similarity transformations are used to transform the governing nonlinear partial differential equation to ordinary differential equations. The condensed boundary layer equations for Jeffrey nanofluid model are solved numerically. The effects of emerging parameters on velocity, temperature, and nanoparticle volumetric expansion profiles are discussed. Stimulating results are presented graphically and explained physically. The heat transfer rate and concentration rate are also displayed graphically for different flow control parameters.
