Abstract
The objective of present study is to examine the nonlinear thermal radiation behavior in the mixed convection stagnation point flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluid towards a stretching surface. Flow analysis is presented by considering the chemical reaction and heat generation/absorption effects. The convective type conditions are imposed to make the analysis of heat and mass transfer. Nanoparticles effects are encountered due to consideration of thermophoresis and Brownian motion. The governing nonlinear partial differential systems are transform into nonlinear ordinary differential systems by adequate similarity variables. Convergence of the series solutions are obtained for velocity, temperature and concentration. The behavior of significant physical quantities on the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions are analyzed through plots. Graphical results of the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also plotted and examined. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
