- Abstract
A steady two‐dimensional Casson nanofluid flow over the permeable stretching/shrinking sheet along the viscous dissipation and the chemical reaction is studied in this article. The convective boundary condition is incorporated in energy equation. Similarity variables are applied to convert the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The numerical solutions of the equations are obtained by using the shooting method with Maple implementation. The numerical findings indicate occurrence of the dual solutions for a certain range of stretching/shrinking and suction parameters. Therefore, a stability analysis is done to find the solution that is stable and physically realizable. The effects of the pertinent physical parameters on velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are investigated graphically. Numerical results of various parameters involved for skin friction coefficient, the local Nusselt as well as Sherwood numbers are determined and also discussed in detail. The Casson and suction parameters decrease the velocity in the first solution, whereas they increase it in the second solution. The rate of heat transfer increases in both solutions with an increment in Eckert number, Biot number, thermophoresis, and Brownian motion parameters. Thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters show opposite behavior in the nanoparticle's concentration. The nanoparticle concentration decreases in both solutions with increment in Schmidt number, Brownian motion, and chemical reaction parameters.
