Transient thin film flow of nonlinear radiative Maxwell nanofluid over a rotating disk

In this letter, a mathematical model for transient nature thin film flow of Maxwell nanofluid over a rotating disk is studied in the presence of a uniform magnetic field and non-linear thermal radiation. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis features due to nanofluid are captured by adopting the Buongiorno model. The prime emphasize is to explore the temperature field and nanoparticles volume fraction in nanofluid thin film flow. The reduced system of differential equations is solved numerically by finite difference based method namely bvp4c. The numerical outcomes regarding film thickness, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, velocity, temperature, and concentration are revealed for varying estimation of involved physical parameters. It is shown that the film thickness decreases with increasing values of the magnetic number. Further, the impact of thermophoresis and thermal radiation parameters is worthwhile in enhancing the fluid temperature. The Solute concentration is found to decrease with Brownian motion and Schmidt number.
