Abstract

Effects of second order slip on plane Poiseuille nanofluid under the influence of Stefan blowing in a channel are discovered in this study. The starring role of heat transfer, magnetic field and porosity are all together taken into account. The mathematical modeling is performed via Buongiorno's model. The effectual reliability of analytical solutions derived by homotopy analysis method is verified through h-curves as well as by means of residual errors norms in each case. Impact of physical factors is examined via graphs numerical tables. The slowing down effects of Stefan blowing are significantly seen for velocity and temperature profiles whereas opposite characteristic for the case of nanoparticle concentrations is noticed. Also an extra sensitivity in the field of velocity is observed for second- order slip as compared to first order -slip.
