Abstract
At first, we derive a series form solution of the coupled highly nonlinear equations, which includes various conditions. Then, via the method of directly defined inverse mapping with the series form solution firstly reported in this paper, we can obtain theoretical and approximate analytical analysis about the transfer of heat as well as the magnetohydrodynamic flow of Maxwell nanofluid by the influence of convective heating with effects of thermal radiation. In the energy equation, heat flux model is adopted to develop the equations for viscoelastic relaxation over boundary layer flow. For this investigation, we considered base liquid as engine oil and other forms of carbon nanotubes such as single walled nanotubes and multi-walled nanotubes. Suitable similarity transformations are applied for transformation of given boundary layer flow equations. Results are compared numerically by Keller–Box method. It is found that for both singled and multi-walled carbon nanotube based nanofluids the thermal relaxation time and temperature function are inversely proportional. More interestingly it is noted that for the two types of nanofluids, fluid relaxation parameter exactly coordinates with heat transfer rate as well as skin friction investigated. Also shown that the base functions of solutions are highly convergence.
