Abstract

In this present work, the heat radiation and chemical reactions of a magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid flow across an exponentially stretchable sheet is investigated. The heat transfer and flow with these characteristics is comprehend. The inclusion of microorganisms in the conventional fluid aids the stability of nanofluid. The finite difference method is used to solve the governing equations and MATLAB’s BVP4C is engaged as the computational technique. Under varying values of the governing parameters, the numerical outcomes are obtained for the velocity, concentration, temperature, microorganism density profile along local Nusselt number, local Sherwood number and skin friction coefficient. The increase of velocity of slip parameters diminishes the skin friction coefficient is noted. By enhancing the parameters (magnetic field and suction), the skin friction coefficient value enhanced and the inverse is observed for decreasing the parameter decreases Local Nusselt. It shows a decline behavior by thermal slip parameter and the radiation parameter but boost up with value of Prandtl number. By improving the value of the concentration slip parameter and radiation parameter, the value of local Sherwood number decreases. The local Sherwood number increases by the value of Prandtl number increase. Similar results are obtained for local density number of microorganism that by increasing the value of magnetic parameter and density slip parameter local density number decreases. It increases by increasing the value of suction parameter. Results are checked with reference to existing literature and presented graphically and tabular form.
