KKL-model of MHD CuO-nanofluid flow over a stagnation point stretching sheet with nonlinear thermal radiation and suction/injection

In this study, we analyzed numerically the effects of magnetic field and thermal radiation on forced-convection flow of CuO-water nanofluid past a stretching sheet with stagnation point in the presence of suction/injection. Considering the effects of Brownian motion, we applied the Koo-Kleinstreuer-Li (KKL) correlation to simulate the effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of the nanofluid. The equations governing the flow transformed to ordinary differential equations and solved numerically using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration scheme featuring a shooting technique. The influence of significant parameters such as the magnetic parameter, radiation parameter, suction/injection parameter and velocity ratio parameter on the velocity and temperature profiles are discussed and presented through graphs and analyzed for (CuO-water).
