The present numerical attempt deals with the sway to transfer of heat and mass characteristics on the time-dependent hydromagnetic boundary layer flow of a viscous fluid over an exponentially inclined preamble stretching sheet. Furthermore, the role of viscous heating, thermal radiation, uneven energy gain or loss, velocity slip, thermal slip and solutal slips are depicted. The prevailing time-dependent PDE’s are rehabilitated into coupled non-linear ODE’s with the aid of apposite similarity transformations and then revealed numerically by using the 4th order R-K method incorporated with shooting scheme. Influence of various notable parameters like porosity, inertia coefficient, radiation, Eckert number, velocity, thermal and solutal slip are explored via graphs and tables for the cases assisting and opposing flows. Comparison amid the previously published work and the present numerical outcomes for the limiting cases are in a righteous agreement. Temperature increments with large values of the non-uniform heat source.

The current article has investigated unsteady convective flow for MHD non-Newtonian Powell-Eyring fluid embedded porous medium over inclined permeable stretching sheet. We have pondered the thermophoresis parameter, chemical reaction, variable thermal conductivity, Brownian motion, variable heat source and variable thermal radiation in temperature and concentration profiles. Using similar transformation, the PDEs are converted by couple ODEs and solve by R–K–Fehlberg 4th–5th order method. The physical features of non-dimensional radiation parameter, non-Newtonian fluid parameters, suction /injection parameter, mass Grashof number porosity parameter, temperature ratio parameter, thermal Grashof number, Biot number of temperature and Biot number of concentration have been analyzed by plotting the graphs of graphical representations of momentum, heat, and mass profiles. , and have been analyzed. The transfer rate of temperature is decreased whereas the flow rate offluid grows with an enhancement in (K) and (Gr).The transfer rate of the temperature is distinctly boosted whereas the fluid flow rate is distinctly declined with an enhancement in (M) , (Kp).

The steady three-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a dusty fluid towards a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions is investigated by using similarity solution approach. The free stream along z-direction impinges on the stretching sheet to produce a flow with different velocity components. The governing equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by using appropriate similarity variables. Reduced nonlinear ordinary differential equations subjected to the associated boundary conditions are solved numerically by using Runge–Kutta fourth-fifth order method along with Shooting technique. The effects of the physical parameters like magnetic parameter, velocity ratio, fluid and thermal particle interaction parameter, Prandtl number, Eckert number and Biot number on flow and heat characteristics are examined, illustrated graphically, and discussed in detail. The results indicate that the fluid phase velocity is always greater than that of the particle phase and temperature profiles of fluid and dust phases increases with the increase of the Eckert number.

In the present paper, the flow and heat transfer of two types of nanofluids, namely, silver-water and silicon dioxide-water, were theoretically analyzed over an isothermal continues stretching sheet. To this purpose, the governing partial differential equations were converted to a set of nonlinear differential equations using similarity transforms and were then analytically solved. It was found that the magnitude of velocity profiles in the case of SiO2-water nanofluid was higher than that of Ag-water nanofluid. The results showed that the increase of nanoparticle volume fraction increased the non-dimensional temperature and thickness of thermal boundary layer. In both cases of silver and silicon dioxide, increase of nanoparticle volume fraction increased the reduced Nusselt number and shear stress. It was also demonstrated that the increase of the reduced Nusselt number was higher for silicon dioxide nanoparticles than silver nanoparticles. However, the thermal conductivity of silver was much higher than that of silicon dioxide.
