Heat and mass transfer and fluid flow of a nanofluid over a shrinking sheet

چکیده مقاله

The steady flow of a Jeffry fluid model with nanoparticle is studied. Similarity transformation is used to convert the governing partial differential equations to a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Variations of velocity, temperature and concentration profiles and Variations of Nusselt number and Sherwood numbers against the physical parameters are investigated. It was found that the Nusselt number and Sherwood number are decreasing function of Brownian parameter and thermophoresis parameter.
