The main goal of present research is to illustrate the frequency and amplitude behavior of heat and mass transfer of Darcy Forchheimer nanofluid flow with Arrhenius activation energy and thermal radiation effects. The impact of heat generation and chemical reaction on Darcy Forchheimer nanofluid along vertical porous cone is investigated to improve heating durability of thermodynamic systems in this research. The governing mathematical model is moderated in suitable format to construct physical coefficients. The oscillating stokes and primitive coefficients are used to differentiate the model into oscillating and steady forms. The Gaussian elimination and implicit finite difference techniques are used to address the numerical findings. To construct pertinent algorithm in FORTRAN system, the primitive-type variables are used on steady and oscillating models with first law of thermodynamics, nanoparticles and heat generation. The results under defined conditions are reported in numerical and graphical sequence through Tec-plot 360. It is found that the amplitude of surface temperature increases as heat generation increases because heat generation improves the excessive thermal transport. It is depicted that the Darcy-Forchheimer porous material decreases the fluid temperature. It is found that amplitude of mass transfer increases as activation energy and chemical reaction coefficient increases. The oscillating frequency of heat and mass transfer increases as Prandtl number increases. The current mechanism of mass and heat transfer of nanofluid has several uses in mineralogy, cutting tools, lubricating oils, machining operations, heat exchangers, coating sheets, petroleum drilling and cooling of metallic cones.
