This article models the effects of magnetic field and nanoparticles in the three-dimensional flow of Sisko fluid. The flow is caused by a bidirectional stretching surface. Effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis in the nanofluid model are considered. Sisko fluid is assumed electrically conducted through a constant applied magnetic field. Mathematical formulation in boundary layer regime is presented for a low magnetic Reynolds number. Newly constructed boundary condition subject to zero nanoparticles mass flux at the surface is employed. Nonlinear differential systems are solved for the convergent solutions. Effects of various physical parameters are studied and discussed. Numerical values of skin friction coefficients and Nusselt number are tabulated and analyzed. It is observed that the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters on the nanoparticles concentration distribution are quite opposite. Further the temperature and nanoparticles concentration distributions are enhanced for the larger values of magnetic parameter. (C) 2016 The Society of Powder Technology Japan.
