Numerical Study of Casson Nanofluid Flow over a Stretching Surface

In this contribution, the numerical analysis of the Casson nanofluid towards a stretching surface is studied. The stagnation flow with thermal radiation effects over an exponentially stretching has been considered. The flow problem governing partial differential equations are converted into the ordinary differential equations along with relevant boundary conditions using appropriate similarities. The resulting ODEs then solved numerically using the Keller box methodology, which is a well-known technique. It can be shown from the comparison that our current results and the earlier ones have a good match. It has been found that the reduced Sherwood number, increases for increasing values of radiation parameter while, Nusselt number and skin friction coefficient decreases. Furthermore, the skin-friction coefficient increases as the inclination factor increases but Nusselt and Sherwood numbers decline. The temperature profile increases with the increasing behavior of radiation factor. Further the magnetic effects reduce the velocity profile.
