Zusammenfassung:An article is made to report the combined effects of both chemical reaction and dual stratification on boundary layer magneto-hydrodynamic Eyring Powell nanofluid flow towards both flat and cylindrical an inclined stretching surfaces under the region of stagnation point along with heat and mass transfer characteristics. The flow situation is carried out by considering physical effects namely, thermal radiation and heat generation. To be more specific, the fluid flow is entertained through no slip condition i-e the velocity of particles is directly related to velocity of surface due to stretching. The physical situation within the real concerned constraints is translated in terms of differential equations as a boundary value problem. To make implementation of computational algorithm possible, firstly the intricate PDE’s are transformed into ODE’s by using suitable transformation, secondly resulting boundary value problem is converted into an initial value problem. These constructed ordinary differential equations are solved computationally by shooting technique charted with Runge-Kutta scheme. The effect logs of involved physical flow parameters are explored with the aid of graphical outcomes and tabular values. A straight line curve fitting way of communication is executed to inspect the impact of both thermophoresis parameter and Brownian motion parameter on heat and mass transfer rates. It is found that heat transfer normal to the cylindrical surface shows decline attitude towards both thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters.
