英文摘要 | In the present article, two dimensional boundary-layer flows and the heat transfer of a Maxwell fluid past a stretching sheet are studied numerically. The effects of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and elasticity on the flow are considered. Moreover, the effects of nanoparticles are also investigated. Similarity transformations are presented to convert the governing nonlinear partial differential equation into coupled ordinary differential equations. The reduced boundary layer equations of the Maxwell nanofluid model are solved numerically. The effects of the emerging parameters, namely, the magnetic parameter M, the elastic parameter K, the Prandtl parameter Pr, the Brownian motion Nb, the thermophoresis parameter Nt and the Lewis number Le on the temperature and the concentration profile are discussed. Interesting results are shown graphically. The skin friction coefficient, the dimensionless heat transfer rate and the concentration rate are also plotted against the flow control parameters.
