Thermal analysis of higher-order chemical reactive viscoelastic nanofluids flow in porous media via stretching surface

The essence of the present investigation is to reveal the hydrothermal variations of viscoelastic nanofluid flow in a porous medium over a stretchable surface. A higher-order chemical reaction is incorporated with thermophoresis and Brownian motion. Similarity conversions reduce the resulting equations into their dimensionless form and then solved using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF) based shooting procedure. The effects of underlying factors on the flow are discussed through various graphs and tables. Computational results for noteworthy skin friction and heat and mass transport are presented and reviewed with sensible judgment. The study reveals that the fluid velocity reduces with incremental values of the viscoelastic parameter k 1 * and magnetic strength. The temperature reduces for the suction parameter with the existence of stretchable but enhances with thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. Heat transfer rate amplifies for P r but declines for γ . Mass transfer rate increases with the increase in Brownian parameter and Schmidt number. A comparative analysis shows a better agreement with previous results in limiting scenarios.
