Abstract
The problem of convective-radiative boundary layer flow of a nanofluid over a non-linear stretching sheet in presence of magnetic field parameter and suction parameter is investigated numerically in this paper. The resulting non-linear partial differential equations with associated boundary condition are solved numerical using shooting technique with fifth-order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. Present results showed an excellent agreement with the previously published work in absence of magnetic field, thermal radiation and suction. The physics of the problem is well explored for the embedded material parameters through tables and graphs. The effects of various physical parameters are analyzed in details. It is found that thermal radiation greatly effects the velocity and temperature distributions in the boundary layer. © 2017 by American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.
