The study on heat and mass transportation play a noteworthy role in the liquid atmosphere wherever nearby is considerable temperature and deposition of diffusion transport in a stirring wedge. Heat and mass transport on fluids discoveries prominence in development of manufacturing and industrial processes such as petroleum reservoirs, nuclear waste disposal, heat exchanger devices, etc. By taking this into, the present study exhibited here to consider the impact of variable fluid properties on nanofluid flow over a wedge. The analysis of the flow has been analyzed consisting with the influences of heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction. It is accepted to have fluid viscosity and thermal conductivity as an opposite capability and conventional capacity of temperature, separately. The succeeding nonlinear ordinary differential circumstances are measured numerically utilizing the fourth order of the Runge-Kutta technique jointly with the shooting method. The consequence of the suitable parameters concerning the flow has been explained through graphs and tables, together with the necessary contentions/conversation. The accompanying investigation exhibits that the fluid temperature is higher within the view of a variable viscosity and heat generation parameters. It is additionally seen that the wall stress diminishes with expanding velocity slip.
