Abstract

The current study compacts with effect of nonlinear convection and radiation on tangent hyperbolic fluid flow of through a convectively heated vertical surface. The converted set of boundary layer equations are solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. The effect of various pertinent parameters on flow and heat transfer characteristics are discussed with tabulated numerical values and deliberate figures. Additionally, the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are also presented. We noticed that, the skin friction factor and heat transfer rates are higher in presence of nonlinear convection than its absence. Further, velocity profile decreases by increasing power law index but establishes opposite results for skin friction. Keywords: Tangent hyperbolic fluid, Nonlinear convection, Nonlinear thermal radiation, Heat source, Numerical solution
