Description

A mathematical model is designed to deliberate the flow of an MHD Jeffery nanofluid past a vertically inclined stretched cylinder near a stagnation point. The flow analysis is performed in attendance of thermal radiation, mixed convection and chemical reaction. Influence of thermal and solutal stratification with slip boundary condition is also considered. Apposite transformations are engaged to convert the nonlinear partial differential equations to differential equations with high nonlinearity. Convergent series solutions of the problem are established via the renowned Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). Graphical illustrations are plotted to depict the effects of prominent arising parameters against all involved distributions. Numerically erected tables of important physical parameters like Skin friction, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also give. Comparative studies (with a previously examined work) are also included to endorse our results. It is noticed that the thermal stratification parameter has diminishing effect on temperature distribution. Moreover, the velocity field is a snowballing and declining function of curvature and slip parameters respectively.
