Abstract

Recently, nanotechnology, especially the phenomena affecting the properties of flow and heat transport of nanofluid, has attracted considerable attention of researchers. In this study, the influence of Joule heating and chemical reaction in magnetite Carreau nanofluid has been elaborated considering the properties of radiation and convective phenomena. Additionally, the variable wall temperature and wall concentration have been reported. The bvp4c algorithm has been considered for solution progression. The influential variables are depicted graphically. The result reports that the temperature field increases for Eckert and magnetic numbers. The other output increases the concentration field for chemical reaction factor and decays for Brownian factor. Furthermore, comparison tables are given to show that our results agree with the results from earlier studies.
