MHD Boundary Layer Flow of Casson Nanofluid Over a Non Linear Stretching Sheet with Viscous Dissipation and Convective Condition

The MHD boundary layer flow with heat and mass transfer of Casson nanofluid over a non-linear stretching sheet with viscous dissipation and radiation effect is investigated. Convective surface boundary condition is employed for thermal boundary layer. The governing partial differential equations are reduced to nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations by applying the boundary layer approximations and a suitable similarity transformation. These nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations, subject to the appropriate boundary conditions, are then solved by using shooting technique with the fourth-order RungeKutta method. The effects of the physical parameters on the flow, heat transfer and nanoparticle concentration characteristics of the problem are presented through graphs and are discussed in detailed. Numerical values of Nusselt number and Sherwood number with different parameters were computed and analysed.
