MHD Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids through a Porous Media Due to a Stretching Sheet with Viscous Dissipation and Chemical Reaction Effects

This article investigates the convective heat and mass transfer in nanofluid flow through a porous media due to a stretching sheet subjected to magnetic field, viscous dissipation, chemical reaction, and Soret effects. The governing equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations and then solved numerically by the Keller box method. Numerical results are obtained for the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, as well as for the velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles for selected values of the governing parameters. Excellent validation of the present numerical results has been achieved with the earlier studies in the literature.
