Similarity solution of 3D Casson nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions

In this study, we analyzed the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid flow. Heat and mass transfer over a stretching surface in the presence of thermophoresis and Brownian motion is investigated. The transformed governing equations are solved numerically via Runge–Kutta based shooting technique. We obtained good accuracy of the present results by comparing with the exited literature. The influence of dimensionless parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles along with the friction factor, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are discussed with the help of graphs and tables. It is found that an increase in the stretching ratio parameter enhances the heat and mass transfer rate. The heat and mass transfer rate in non-Newtonian fluid is comparatively high while compared with the heat and mass transfer rate in Newtonian fluid.
