An analysis is carried out to study the heat transfer characteristics of steady two-dimensional stagnation-point flow of a copper (Cu)-water nanofluid over a permeable stretching/ shrinking sheet. The stretching/shrinking velocity and the ambient fluid velocity are assumed to vary linearly with the distance from the stagnation-point. Results for the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, velocity as well as the temperature profiles are presented for different values of the governing parameters. It is found that dual solutions exist for the shrinking case, while for the stretching case, the solution is unique. The results indicate that the inclusion of nanoparticles into the base fluid produces an increase in the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer rate at the surface. Moreover, suction increases the surface shear stress and in consequence increases the heat transfer rate at the fluid-solid interface.
