Biomathematical analysis for the carbon nanotubes effects on the stagnation point flow towards a nonlinear stretching sheet with homogeneous-heterogeneous reaction

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to study the homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions on magnetohydrodynamic flow over a nonlinear stretching sheet.Water/blood is taken as the base fluid for the suspension of single-wall carbon nanotubes. The governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations which are solved numerically by utilizing the fourth order Runge-Kutta method with shooting technique. Graphical results have been presented for the velocity, temperature, concentration, local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number for various physical parameters of interest. Comparisons with previously published data are performed and the results are found to be excellent agreement.
