Stratification phenomenon in an inclined rheology of UCM nanomaterial

This investigation presents the unsteady rheology of Maxwell nanomaterial induced to flow over an inclined surface. Simultaneous effects of stratification, thermal radiation, heat source/sink and magnetic field are taken into account. Viscous dissipation and mixed convection due to concentration and temperature differences are also analyzed. The governing partial differential equations for the Maxwell nanofluid which incorporate the effects of Brownian and thermophoresis effects are simplified by using appropriate similarity transformations, and solved analytically by using homotopy analysis method (HAM). The effects of involved physical parameters on the flow field are analyzed graphically and numerically.
