Abstract
This research work addresses the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of third grade fluid due to an exponentially stretching sheet. Analysis of heat and mass subject to thermal radiation, internal heat generation and convective conditions is studied. First order chemical reaction is present. Both cases of constructive and destructive chemical reactions are analyzed. Convergent solutions of the resulting differential systems are presented in series forms. Characteristics of various sundry parameters on the non-dimensional temperature, concentration, skin friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are visualized. Besides these the numerical values of skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also computed and analyzed. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
