The Impact of Radiation Effect on MHD Stagnation-Point Flow of a Nanofluid over an Exponentially Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Chemical Reaction

Abstract

The present study is to investigate the effect of the chemical reaction parameter on stagnation point flow of magnetohydrodynamics field past an exponentially stretching sheet by considering a nanofluid. The problem is governed by governing coupled nonlinear partial differential equations with appropriate boundary conditions. The transformed non-dimensional and coupled governing ordinary differential equations are solved numerically using the fourth order Adams-Bashforth Moulton method. The effects of various dimensionless parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration fields are studied and then the results are presented in both tabular and graphical forms.
