Abstract
This paper explores the combined effects of heat radiation, viscous dissipation, and chemical reactions on the steady flow of Williamson nanofluid over an exponentially stretched sheet. The Governing non-linear Partial Differential Equations (PDE's), converted to couple nonlinear Ordinary ODE's by using similarity transformation, which are solved numerically using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method along with the shooting technique. The study shows detailed analysis of the behaviour of Williamson nanofluid under the influence of thermal radiation and magnetic fields, having relevant industrial applications in cooling technologies and polymer processing. The results show that increasing the magnetic field parameter reduces the fluid velocity, while higher thermal radiation and Brownian motion parameters significantly enhance heat transfer rate withing the boundary region.
