Analysis regarding heat transport subjected to non-Darcian media has increased in science and technological utilization. Typical applications comprise grain storage, nuclear waste discarding, production of crude oil, pollution in groundwater, porous insulation, and several others. This motivates us to demonstrate the heat transport phenomenon in the viscous fluid's flow deformed by a linearly stretchable surface submerged in Darcy-Forchheimer porous medium. Properties of heat transfer are elaborated with nonlinear mixed convection and Cattaneo-Christov heat model. Slip phenomenon is implemented at the wall surface. The governing equations are achieved in dimensionless form through appropriate transformations. Numerical solutions are constructed through shooting scheme along with 4–5 order Runge-Kutta Fehlberg technique. Graphical behaviors of velocity field and liquid temperature are constructed through various physical parameters. Results witnessed that decrement occurs in velocity field for dominant behavior of velocity slip parameter while it enhances for dominant nonlinear mixed convection parameter.
