Abstract

The theme of current examination is to furnish an analysis of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Jeffrey nanomaterial fluid flow induced by curved stretchable sheet. Thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects has been utilized. Process of heat transpose is taken out through heat absorption/generation mechanism. Electrical conduction for Jeffrey liquid subject to unvarying applied magnetic field is considered. Mathematical formulation is processed under low magnetic Reynolds number and boundary layer approximations. Induction of suitable transformations generate nonlinear ordinary differential system from arising partial differential system whose solution have been obtained and analyzed. The properties of numerous effective parameters are examined and discussed graphically. Further the physical quantities like surface drag force and local Nusselt number are evaluated numerically. For higher thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters, temperature field enhances.
