Abstract

Abstract The mechanism of nanofluid to improve heat transfer features has received great consideration due to their wide applications in chemical engineering and industry. In light of these facts, a numerical simulation for the flow of a micropolar nanofluid with suspended nanoparticles has been analyzed past a permeable stretching sheet with non-uniform heat source/sink, Binary chemical reaction and activation energy. In modeling micropolar nanofluid quantifies and qualifies the thermal phenomena caused by convective heat transfer in the presence of non-uniform heat source/sink and reaction rate. The formulated equations are altered to ordinary differential equations by employing similarity transformations which are then solved by utilizing shooting technique and RKF-45 method. The potentialities of all the representatives are put into graphs and are elucidated. Furthermore, the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number in the boundary layer regime, are exhibited through graphs and tables and are deliberated with proper physical justification. The significant outcomes of the current investigation are that increment in the suction parameter declines the flow velocity and temperature while the injection is uplift the temperature. The skin friction factor is trigger considerable decrease with the stretching parameter. The heat transfer rate increases with the increased values of the radiation parameter.
