Abstract

Impact of chemical reaction and thermal radiation on heat and mass transfer characteristics of nanofluid over linear and non-linear stretching sheet with suction is analyzed in this analysis. Suitable similarity reductions reduce the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations and are solved numerically by using finite element analysis. The influence of various parameters suction parameter V0 (0.1–1.0), magnetic parameter M (0.1–1.0), Buoyancy parameter Nr (0.1–1.0), radiation parameter R (0.1–0.7), thermophoresis parameter Nt (0.1–0.7), Brownian motion Nb (1.0–2.5), lewis parameter Le (1.0–2.5) and chemical reaction parameter Cr (0.1–0.4) on velocity, temperature and concentration are analyzed and are plotted through graphs. The rates velocity, temperature and concentration are also calculated and Results are displayed in tables.
