Abstract
The present analysis deals with an unsteady magnetohydrodynamic flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid over an inclined permeable stretching sheet. Effects of thermal radiation, Joule heating, and chemical reaction are considered. The effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis on the flow over the permeable stretching sheet are discussed. Using Runge-Kutta fourth-order along with shooting technique, numerical and graphical results were obtained for the governing flow equations. The influence of various parameters on flow variables have been examined in detail. The results reveal that the temperature of the fluid enhanced with increasing Brownian and thermophoresis parameters. The increase of fluid velocity with the local Grashof number, the solutal Grashof number has been noticed. Further, the nanoparticles concentration decreased for a given increase in Brownian motion and chemical reaction parameters, while it increased with an increase in the thermophoresis parameter.
