This study implements the comparative study of Casson and Williamson nanofluids by considering the impacts of linear thermal radiation and inclined magnetohydrodynamics. Here, we employ graphs to compare the variables affecting the behavior of non‐Newtonian and Newtonian fluids for a range of physical and dimensionless parameter values. The flow's coupled equations, which contain multiple independent variables, these equations can then be changed into a single independent variable by adding similarity variables and can be solved by applying the shooting method. The effects of thermomigration and Brownian motion on nonlinear flow equations are graphically examined. For an array of radiation parameter values, we have observed that the Newtonian fluid's concentration is lesser than that of both the non‐Newtonian fluids and also noticed that Newtonian fluids converge a little sooner than Casson and Williamson fluids. The primary innovation is shown in Table 1, where the mass transfer and heat transfer values are contrasted with the limiting circumstances of previous research findings that are documented in the literature.

The present work is focused on the stagnation point flow over a Jeffery fluid flow through a stretching/shrinking sheet. The nanoparticles namely Cu are considered by exploiting water-based fluid. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations is converted into a system of highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations via a similarity transformation. Therefore, it is quite significant to assimilate the analytical extension of heat transfer and mass transfer fluid in the presence of porous under the influence of slip velocity. The analytical solution available for nondimensional momentum, heat transfer, and concentration profiles across the boundary layer is examination is done by checking the various values of physical parameters viz., Prandtl number, Radiation parameter, stretching/shrinking parameter, and mass transpiration for the flow and heat transfer which are obtainable through graphs. The present work on nanofluids flowing through stretching/shrinking surfaces has numerous applications in biomedicine, solar energy, cooling, nuclear system cooling, etc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The induced magnetic field is used to control the fluid motion and heat transfer in a variety of applications, such as in MHD devices, microfluidics, electrically conducting fluids in channels and in circular pipes, and clinical applications such as drug delivery and cooling of nuclear reactors. Henceforth this investigation aims to elucidate the behavior of viscoelastic (second-grade fluid) ternary nanofluid flow through a permeable stretching sheet with an induced magnetic field. The stretching surface is subjected to the Cattaneo-Christov heat and mass flux model to investigate heat and mass transfer properties. Solutions of reduced governing equations are obtained numerically via the shooting method and computed using the bvp-4c algorithm. The impacts of diverse active parameters such as porous medium, magnetic parameter, reciprocal magnetic Prandtl parameter, stretching parameter, HSS parameter, and relaxation time parameter for heat and mass flux are studied graphically. In addition, the values of significant engineering factors are calculated and comparative analysis is presented through bar graphs. It is seen that regular heat sink/source promotes thermal distribution and relaxation time for mass flux enhances the mass transfer rate between fluid flow and solid surface. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
