Magnetohydrodynamic Stagnation Point Flow of a Maxwell Nanofluid with Variable Conductivity

This article reports the simultaneous properties of variable conductivity and chemical reaction in stagnation point flow of magneto Maxwell nanofluid.The Buongiorno’s theory has been established to picture the inducement of Brownian and thermophrotic diffusions effects.Additionally,the aspect of heat sink/source is reported.The homotopic analysis method(HAM) has been worked out for the solution of nonlinear ODEs.The behavior of inferential variables on the velocity,temperature,concentration and local Nusselt number for Maxwell nanofluid are sketched and discussed.The attained outcomes specify that both the temperature and concentration of Maxwell fluid display analogous behavior,while the depiction of Brownian motion is quite conflicting on both temperature and concentration fields.It is further noted that the influence of variable thermal conductivity on temperature field is similar to that of Brownian motion parameter.Moreover,for the confirmation of our study comparison tables are reported.
