MHD tangent hyperbolic nanofluid with chemical reaction, viscous dissipation and Joule heating effects

In this article, the motion of a non-Newtonian tangent hyperbolic nanofluid past a stretching sheet is analyzed. Nanofluid is comprised of thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. Magnetic field is implemented in vertical direction under the assumption of low magnetic Reynolds number. The phenomenon of heat transfer has been examined subject to the viscous dissipation and Joule heating whereas the mass transfer has been analyzed under the effect of chemical reaction. The partial differential equations (PDEs) governing the flow, heat and mass transport are re-framed in the form ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by means of the similarity solutions. A numerical procedure known as the Keller-box method has been implemented to obtain the solutions for the accomplished ODEs. The effects of the variations of different involved parameters on fluid temperature, velocity and concentration distributions are disclosed through graphs and analyzed in detail. The features of skin friction, heat and mass transfer coefficient are tabulated and graphed in order to perceive the flow, heat and mass transport processes. It is noticed that an increment in the Weissenberg number results in a reduction in the velocity field.
