Abstract

This paper examines the influence of magnetized Casson nanofluid flow and heat transport phenomena towards a boundary layer flow over a nonlinear stretchable surface. The characteristics of the nanofluid are illustrated by considering Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects due to which the fluid is electrically conducting. The nonlinear Casson model is very useful to describe the fluid behavior and the flow curves of suspensions of pigments in lithographic varnishes intended for the preparation of printing inks. A uniform magnetic field, along with suction and chemical reaction are taken into account. Similarity transformations are employed to convert the PDEs into ODEs, and then solved numerically (Bvp4c) using MATLAB. This scheme consists of a finite difference scheme that implements three-stage Lobatto IIIa collocation formula which provides continuous solution upto fifth-order accuracy. Excellent correctness of the present results has been acquired which is compared with the previous one. The outcomes of various parameters on heat transfer rate, skin friction coefficient, nanoparticle concentration, Sherwood number, velocity and temperature profiles are demonstrated via tabular forms and pictorially. The most important fact is that an increase in the thermophoresis parameter, radiation and magnetic parameter boosts up the fluid temperature, resulting in an improvement in the thermal boundary layer.
