Heat transfer on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation - point flow in nanofluid past a porous shrinking/stretching sheet with variable stream condition in the presence of blowing at the surface

This paper deals with the steady two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation-point flow of nanofluid and heat transfer with thermal radiation past a stretching/shrinking sheet in the presence of injection are investigated numerically and simulated with Maple 18 software. Brownian motion and thermophoresis are included in employed model of nanofluid simultaneously. The system of nonlinear ordinary differential...
