Effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion for thermal and chemically reacting Casson nanofluid flow over a linearly stretching sheet

The current research explores the problem of steady laminar flow of nanofluid on a two dimensional boundary layer using heat transfer of Cassona cross the linearly stretching sheet. The governing equations are partial differential equations which are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations by using some similarity transformation. The converted form of the combined non-linear higher-order ODEswith a set of boundary conditions are solved by means of Runge-Kutta 4th-order approach along with the shooting method. The nanoparticle concentration profiles, velocity, and temperature are examined by taking account of their influence of Prandtl number, “Brownian motion parameter”, Lewis number, thermophoresis, and Casson fluid parameter. It is reported that the temperature increase as Nt and Nb increases which causes thickening of the thermal boundary layer. Also it is observed that, there is increment in temperature profile for increasing values of Brownian motion parameter and the energy distribution grows with increment in the values of Thermophoresis parameter. The comparison for the local Nusselt & local Sherwood number has been tabulated with respect to variation of the Brownian Motion Parameter and Thermophoresis parameter. All the findings of the results are graphically represented and discussed.
