thorough overview of the nanofluid literature Innovativefluid types are needed in these days to achieve more effectiveoutput Sheikholeslami and Bhatti [6] studied forced con-vection of nanofluid considering nanoparticlesrsquo shape im-pacts )e Brownian motion impact on nanofluid flowwithin a porous cavity was recently regarded by Sheikho-leslami [7] He found that convective flow enhances withincrease in Darcy number

)e research of electrically conductive fluid flow hasmany applications in engineering issues such as MHDgenerators plasma research nuclear reactors geothermalenergy extraction and aerodynamic boundary layer control[8] Reddy et al [9] studied the effects of frictional andirregular temperature on non-Newtonian MHD fluid flowsowing to stretched surface

Mishra and Singh [10] addressed dual solutions of mixedconvection flow with momentum and heat slip over apermeable shrinking cylinder When studying the flowmodels in nanoscales or microscales the interaction of thefluid surface is mostly controlled by models of slip flow)ese models were checked from asymptotic solution usingthe Boltzmann technique where the internal kinetic solutionmatches the outer (ie bulk) NavierndashStokes solution andmatching is only achieved when the slipjump coefficient isregarded at the border or surface (Hadjiconstantinou[11 12]))erefore the slip coefficients are the result of theseassessments Due to its simplicity the slip flow phenomenonis always preferred to no-slip situations )e NavierndashStokesequations are still valid here and only the boundary con-ditions change in compliance with the slip flow model Withthe newly suggested second-order slip flowmodel Fang et al[13] evaluated the slip flow over a permeable shrinkingsurface Ullah et al [14] examined the two-dimensional flowof ReinerndashPhilippoff fluid thin films over an unstablestretching sheet in the variable heat distribution andradiation

Khan et al [15] provided thermal radiation and viscousdissipation impacts on the unstable nanofluid boundarylayer flow over a stretching sheet In this research theyaccounted for the viscous dissipation impact and discoveredthat the heat boundary layer thickness is increased by in-creasing the values of Eckert number Ibrahim and Shankar[16] evaluated the impact of thermophoresis on Brownianfluid movement owing to stretching sheet

Several technological systems depend on the impact ofbuoyancy Makinde et al [17] examined combined impactsof buoyancy force convective warming Brownian move-ment thermophoresis and magnetic field on stagnationpoint stream and heat exchange due to nanofluid streamtowards an extending sheet Ali and Yousef [18] analyzedlaminar mixed convection heat transfer from continuouslystretching vertical surface with energy functional form forwall temperature by considering the impact of buoyancyMixed convection heat transfer from an exponentiallystretching sheet was explored by Partha et al [19] )ey alsoanalyzed influence of buoyancy along with viscous dissi-pation and the flow is governed by the mixed convectionparameter (GrRe2) )e effect of viscous dissipation innatural convection process has been investigated by Gebhart

[20] and Gebhart and Mollendorf [21] Magyari and Keller[22] analytically as well as numerically evaluated the con-tinuous free fluid flow and thermal transfer from an ex-ponentially stretching vertical surface with an exponentialtemperature distribution Unsteady flow of thermally ra-diating nanofluid over nonlinearly stretching sheet wasdiscussed by Seth et al [23] )ey noted that the nanofluidrsquosvelocity curve depends on the unsteadiness velocity slip andstretching velocity nonlinearity Makinde et al [24] reportedthe two-dimensional unsteady MHD radiating electricallyconducting fluid past a slippery stretching sheet embeddedin a porous medium Using the explicit finite differencescheme they solved the system of higher-order nonlinearPDEs Hamid and Khan [25] have discussed the thermo-physical properties of the flow of Williamson nanofluid andsolved their problem numerically )ey concluded that thestronger the magnetic field resulted in decreasing ofboundary layer thickness Some other references in thisdirection can be consulted in [26ndash28]

Qing et al [29] researched the entropy generation ofnanofluid owing to a magnetic field over a stretching surfaceHosseini et al [30] discussed heat transfer of nanofluid flow inmicrochannel heat sink (MCHS) in the presence of a magneticfield )e influence of chemical reaction and heat generationabsorption on mixed convective flow of nanofluid past anexponentially stretched surface has been examined by Eid [31]and numerical solutions have been obtained by utilizing theshooting technique along with the RungendashKuttandashFehlbergmethod Afify and Elgazery [32] investigated numerically theboundary layer flow of Maxwell nanofluid with convectiveboundary condition and heat absorption )e result showedthat nanoparticle concentration reduces with higher chemicalreaction parameter whereas a reverse pattern is noted fortemperature Reviews of viscous fluid flow problems fornonlinear stretching sheet have been presented by Prasad et al[33] Afzal [34] and Nandeppanavar et al [35] Nadeem andLee [36] studied analytically the problem of steady boundarylayer flow of nanofluid over an exponentially stretching surfaceincluding the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresisparameters )e influence of solar energy radiations in thetime-dependent Hiemenz flow of nanofluid over a wedge wasdiscussed byMohamad et al [37] In [38] Sheikholeslami et aldiscussed natural convection inside a sinusoidal annulusTripathi et al [39] reported shape effects of nanoparticle onblood flow in a microvascular flow Bhatti et al [40] havediscussed the movement of gyrotactic microorganism in amagnetized nanofluid over a plate Ibrahim and Anbessa [41]discussed Casson nanofluid with Hall and Ion slip effectsIbrahim and Negera [42] investigated Williamson nanofluidover a stretching cylinder with activation energy For similarwork in this direction the reader referred to [43]

In all previous studies a usual course is followed in one wayor the other and discussion is intended towards linearly ornonlinearly stretching sheets in the absence of some importantemerging parameters)e aim of this work is to add numericalmethodology SFDM in the literature so that it can be ap-plicable to many problems containing coupled ODEs To thebest of our knowledge the current mathematical model alongwith numerical consideration has not been discussed before

31 SFDM )is work is influenced by Na [45] in whichsome numerical results are displayed for linear ODEs Forcoupled nonlinear ODEs we expand these ideas theoreti-cally and execute them in MATLAB )e algorithm withnecessary details for the SFDM is as follows

(1) Reduce third-order ODEs to a pair of ODEs of thefirst and second order

(2) Use Taylor series to linearize the system of nonlinearODEs

(3) Substitute finite difference formulas in thederivatives

(4) Finally solve the algebraic system by TDMA

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

thorough overview of the nanofluid literature Innovativefluid types are needed in these days to achieve more effectiveoutput Sheikholeslami and Bhatti [6] studied forced con-vection of nanofluid considering nanoparticlesrsquo shape im-pacts )e Brownian motion impact on nanofluid flowwithin a porous cavity was recently regarded by Sheikho-leslami [7] He found that convective flow enhances withincrease in Darcy number

)e research of electrically conductive fluid flow hasmany applications in engineering issues such as MHDgenerators plasma research nuclear reactors geothermalenergy extraction and aerodynamic boundary layer control[8] Reddy et al [9] studied the effects of frictional andirregular temperature on non-Newtonian MHD fluid flowsowing to stretched surface

Mishra and Singh [10] addressed dual solutions of mixedconvection flow with momentum and heat slip over apermeable shrinking cylinder When studying the flowmodels in nanoscales or microscales the interaction of thefluid surface is mostly controlled by models of slip flow)ese models were checked from asymptotic solution usingthe Boltzmann technique where the internal kinetic solutionmatches the outer (ie bulk) NavierndashStokes solution andmatching is only achieved when the slipjump coefficient isregarded at the border or surface (Hadjiconstantinou[11 12]))erefore the slip coefficients are the result of theseassessments Due to its simplicity the slip flow phenomenonis always preferred to no-slip situations )e NavierndashStokesequations are still valid here and only the boundary con-ditions change in compliance with the slip flow model Withthe newly suggested second-order slip flowmodel Fang et al[13] evaluated the slip flow over a permeable shrinkingsurface Ullah et al [14] examined the two-dimensional flowof ReinerndashPhilippoff fluid thin films over an unstablestretching sheet in the variable heat distribution andradiation

Khan et al [15] provided thermal radiation and viscousdissipation impacts on the unstable nanofluid boundarylayer flow over a stretching sheet In this research theyaccounted for the viscous dissipation impact and discoveredthat the heat boundary layer thickness is increased by in-creasing the values of Eckert number Ibrahim and Shankar[16] evaluated the impact of thermophoresis on Brownianfluid movement owing to stretching sheet

Several technological systems depend on the impact ofbuoyancy Makinde et al [17] examined combined impactsof buoyancy force convective warming Brownian move-ment thermophoresis and magnetic field on stagnationpoint stream and heat exchange due to nanofluid streamtowards an extending sheet Ali and Yousef [18] analyzedlaminar mixed convection heat transfer from continuouslystretching vertical surface with energy functional form forwall temperature by considering the impact of buoyancyMixed convection heat transfer from an exponentiallystretching sheet was explored by Partha et al [19] )ey alsoanalyzed influence of buoyancy along with viscous dissi-pation and the flow is governed by the mixed convectionparameter (GrRe2) )e effect of viscous dissipation innatural convection process has been investigated by Gebhart

[20] and Gebhart and Mollendorf [21] Magyari and Keller[22] analytically as well as numerically evaluated the con-tinuous free fluid flow and thermal transfer from an ex-ponentially stretching vertical surface with an exponentialtemperature distribution Unsteady flow of thermally ra-diating nanofluid over nonlinearly stretching sheet wasdiscussed by Seth et al [23] )ey noted that the nanofluidrsquosvelocity curve depends on the unsteadiness velocity slip andstretching velocity nonlinearity Makinde et al [24] reportedthe two-dimensional unsteady MHD radiating electricallyconducting fluid past a slippery stretching sheet embeddedin a porous medium Using the explicit finite differencescheme they solved the system of higher-order nonlinearPDEs Hamid and Khan [25] have discussed the thermo-physical properties of the flow of Williamson nanofluid andsolved their problem numerically )ey concluded that thestronger the magnetic field resulted in decreasing ofboundary layer thickness Some other references in thisdirection can be consulted in [26ndash28]

Qing et al [29] researched the entropy generation ofnanofluid owing to a magnetic field over a stretching surfaceHosseini et al [30] discussed heat transfer of nanofluid flow inmicrochannel heat sink (MCHS) in the presence of a magneticfield )e influence of chemical reaction and heat generationabsorption on mixed convective flow of nanofluid past anexponentially stretched surface has been examined by Eid [31]and numerical solutions have been obtained by utilizing theshooting technique along with the RungendashKuttandashFehlbergmethod Afify and Elgazery [32] investigated numerically theboundary layer flow of Maxwell nanofluid with convectiveboundary condition and heat absorption )e result showedthat nanoparticle concentration reduces with higher chemicalreaction parameter whereas a reverse pattern is noted fortemperature Reviews of viscous fluid flow problems fornonlinear stretching sheet have been presented by Prasad et al[33] Afzal [34] and Nandeppanavar et al [35] Nadeem andLee [36] studied analytically the problem of steady boundarylayer flow of nanofluid over an exponentially stretching surfaceincluding the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresisparameters )e influence of solar energy radiations in thetime-dependent Hiemenz flow of nanofluid over a wedge wasdiscussed byMohamad et al [37] In [38] Sheikholeslami et aldiscussed natural convection inside a sinusoidal annulusTripathi et al [39] reported shape effects of nanoparticle onblood flow in a microvascular flow Bhatti et al [40] havediscussed the movement of gyrotactic microorganism in amagnetized nanofluid over a plate Ibrahim and Anbessa [41]discussed Casson nanofluid with Hall and Ion slip effectsIbrahim and Negera [42] investigated Williamson nanofluidover a stretching cylinder with activation energy For similarwork in this direction the reader referred to [43]

In all previous studies a usual course is followed in one wayor the other and discussion is intended towards linearly ornonlinearly stretching sheets in the absence of some importantemerging parameters)e aim of this work is to add numericalmethodology SFDM in the literature so that it can be ap-plicable to many problems containing coupled ODEs To thebest of our knowledge the current mathematical model alongwith numerical consideration has not been discussed before

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

31 SFDM )is work is influenced by Na [45] in whichsome numerical results are displayed for linear ODEs Forcoupled nonlinear ODEs we expand these ideas theoreti-cally and execute them in MATLAB )e algorithm withnecessary details for the SFDM is as follows

(1) Reduce third-order ODEs to a pair of ODEs of thefirst and second order

(2) Use Taylor series to linearize the system of nonlinearODEs

(3) Substitute finite difference formulas in thederivatives

(4) Finally solve the algebraic system by TDMA

)e results are shown for N 1000 grid points Gen-erally the domain length varies with different parametersHowever the domain value η 7 seems enough to showsteady state results To initiate the SFDM procedure weassume fprime F in equation (7) and we get

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

31 SFDM )is work is influenced by Na [45] in whichsome numerical results are displayed for linear ODEs Forcoupled nonlinear ODEs we expand these ideas theoreti-cally and execute them in MATLAB )e algorithm withnecessary details for the SFDM is as follows

(1) Reduce third-order ODEs to a pair of ODEs of thefirst and second order

(2) Use Taylor series to linearize the system of nonlinearODEs

(3) Substitute finite difference formulas in thederivatives

(4) Finally solve the algebraic system by TDMA

)e results are shown for N 1000 grid points Gen-erally the domain length varies with different parametersHowever the domain value η 7 seems enough to showsteady state results To initiate the SFDM procedure weassume fprime F in equation (7) and we get

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

two numerical techniques )e first numerical method weuse is the SFDM and the second one is the famous algorithmwritten in MATLAB and commonly known as bvp4c )usdue details on the SFDM will be presented first followed bybrief description on bvp4c

31 SFDM )is work is influenced by Na [45] in whichsome numerical results are displayed for linear ODEs Forcoupled nonlinear ODEs we expand these ideas theoreti-cally and execute them in MATLAB )e algorithm withnecessary details for the SFDM is as follows

(1) Reduce third-order ODEs to a pair of ODEs of thefirst and second order

(2) Use Taylor series to linearize the system of nonlinearODEs

(3) Substitute finite difference formulas in thederivatives

(4) Finally solve the algebraic system by TDMA

)e results are shown for N 1000 grid points Gen-erally the domain length varies with different parametersHowever the domain value η 7 seems enough to showsteady state results To initiate the SFDM procedure weassume fprime F in equation (7) and we get

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

45 Effects of Nt Figure 14 shows that the velocity profileincreases with Nt in the range (05leNtle 2) Figure 15 il-lustrates the variations of thermophoretic parameter ontemperature profile It validated the fact that thermophoreticparameter enhances the temperature profile Since the

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

47 Effects of Eckert Number Ec Eckert number plays animportant role in high speed flows for which viscous dissi-pation is significant It gives relative importance of the kineticenergy in heat transfer flows For Ec≪ 1 the energy equationgives the balance between conduction and convection FromFigures 20ndash22 the effects of this dissipation on velocity

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

4 Results and Discussion

In this section the focus is to analyze the role of embeddedparameters on the velocity temperature and concentrationResults of the current study are displayed in the tabular aswell as graphical form

For minus fPrime(0) the results are compared with the solutionspublished in the literature and this comparison is listed inTable 1)e results demonstrate that the numerical values ofSFDM are accurate and closely agreed with one another

In Table 2 when the admissible values of the magneticparameter increase resultantly the skin friction coefficientalso increases However reduction in both temperature andconcentration gradients is observed One can also observethat the magnitude of the local Nusselt and the localSherwood numbers increases and the skin friction coefficientdecreases with the rise of values of Darcyrsquos number Grashofnumber enhances local Nusselt number and local Sherwoodnumber whereas this reduces the skin friction coefficientHowever Lewis number Le causes slight change in skinfriction coefficient while concentration gradient and walltemperature gradient reduce

It is also evident from Table 2 that local Sherwoodnumber increases by increasing Nt but the effect is seen tobe reverse on skin friction coefficient while local Nusselt

number remains constant )e skin friction coefficientlocal Nusselt number and local Sherwood number de-crease with respect to thermophoretic parameter Nb (seeTable 3) From Table 3 one can observe an increase inlocal Sherwood number along the range of Ec )is alsocauses a surge in local Sherwood number whereas its effecton the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number isopposite

41 Effect of Magnetic Parameter M Figure 2 shows a de-creasing trend in velocity profiles against M(2leMle 8)tothe point where η asymp 250 After this point the boundarylayer thickness demonstrates the opposite behaviour Fig-ure 3 illustrates an increase in thermal boundary layerthickness due to an increase in a magnetic parameterHowever minor increase in concentration profile is pre-sented in Figure 4 )e reduction of the momentumboundary layer is strongly influenced by the magnetic pa-rameter strength which produces Lorentz force and thatoffer resistance to the flow

42 Effects of Darcy Number Da Darcy number Da char-acterizes the strength of permeability of the porous mediumFigures 5 and 6 depict increasing values of Darcy number(05leDa le 155) that increase the velocity profile whileconcentration profile decreases However the temperaturedecreases in the boundary layer region )us the thicknessof the thermal boundary layer decreases as shown inFigure 7

43 Effects of Lewis Number Le Figure 8 displays the vari-ations of velocity profiles due to the variations in the valuesof Lewis number (05leLele 2) It is observed that the ve-locity profile decreases with an increase in Le For Lege 1 themass transport is dominant that resists the flow One canalso observe that in Figure 9 the temperature profile as well

as the thickness of the boundary layer initially increases andthen decreases with an increase due to Lewis number )isimplies that the momentum boundary layer thickness de-creases when a ratio of thermal diffusivity to a mass dif-fusivity increases Figure 10 demonstrates the nanoparticlevolume fraction for several values of Lewis number Le ac-companying reduction in concentration boundary layerthickness

44 Effects of Grashof Number Gr )e Gr approximates theratio of buoyancy to viscous forces and represents how domi-nant is buoyancy force which is responsible for the convictioncomparing to viscous forces Either convection or viscous forcesare dominant and the results are displayed in Figures 11ndash13 Itcan be observed that temperature and concentration decreasewith the Grashof number Gr(3leGrle 65) but there is anabrupt change in a velocity profile

45 Effects of Nt Figure 14 shows that the velocity profileincreases with Nt in the range (05leNtle 2) Figure 15 il-lustrates the variations of thermophoretic parameter ontemperature profile It validated the fact that thermophoreticparameter enhances the temperature profile Since the

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

45 Effects of Nt Figure 14 shows that the velocity profileincreases with Nt in the range (05leNtle 2) Figure 15 il-lustrates the variations of thermophoretic parameter ontemperature profile It validated the fact that thermophoreticparameter enhances the temperature profile Since the

thermophoretic phenomenon transferred nanoparticlesfrom hot surface to the cold region it resulted in increasingthe temperature of the fluid Figure 16 suggests that astronger thermophoretic parameter produces minor changein nanoparticle volume fraction

46 Effects of Nb Incremental Brownian parameterNb(5leNble 20) causes slight change in nanoparticlesvolume fraction which increases the velocity profile aspresented in Figures 17 and 18 Figure 19 suggests that astronger Brownian motion is responsible for an increase inthermal boundary layer thickness

47 Effects of Eckert Number Ec Eckert number plays animportant role in high speed flows for which viscous dissi-pation is significant It gives relative importance of the kineticenergy in heat transfer flows For Ec≪ 1 the energy equationgives the balance between conduction and convection FromFigures 20ndash22 the effects of this dissipation on velocity

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other

5 Conclusions

)is study focuses on two objectives as follows (1) toproduce a mathematical model for nanofluid flow consid-ering MHD radiation porosity and slippery exponentiallystretching sheet which is immersed in a porous medium and(2) to develop a new numerical scheme for the solution of ageneral nonlinear ODEs which is applicable not only for thecurrent problem but many others )e key observations ofpresent work are as follows

(i) )e skin friction coefficient grows with a rise of thevalues of magnetic parameter but local Nusselt andSherwood numbers reduces )e rise of magneticparameter causes decrease in velocity initially afterthat the reverse effects can be seen It enhancestemperature and nanoparticle concentration of theboundary layer regime

(ii) )e Darcy number causes the thermal boundarylayer and solute concentration to reduce whereas itenhances the momentum boundary layer )e skinfriction coefficient decreases yet the wall temper-ature gradient and nanoparticle concentrationincrease with an increase in Darcy number

(iii) )e Grashof number enhances local Nusseltnumber and local Sherwood number whereas thisreduces the skin friction coefficient

(iv) )e Lewis number increases momentum andconcentration boundary layers Although it causesa slight change in the skin friction coefficient walltemperature gradient and boosts nanoparticleconcentration are reduced

(v) )e thermophoresis parameter causes both thethermal and momentum boundary layer to in-crease while its effect on nanoparticle volumefraction is insignificant )e skin friction coeffi-cient and local Sherwood number increase whilelocal Nusselt number remains unaltered

(vi) )e Brownian parameter increases thickness of thethermal boundary layer and momentum boundarylayer while there is a slight change in the con-centration boundary layer It causes a reduction inwall temperature gradient the skin friction coef-ficient the local Nusselt number and the localSherwood number

(vii) )e Eckert number Ec reduces the skin frictioncoefficient local Nusselt number and concentra-tion boundary layer while momentum boundarylayer thermal boundary layer and local Sherwoodnumber increase

(viii) )e SFDM has been successfully developed andapplied in the current problem One can show thatthe SFDM is easy to implement and convergesquickly

(ix) To validate one compares the SFDM results withbvp4c and those with the literature which gives agood account of agreement with each other
