Lie group analysis for nanofluid flow past a convectively heated stretching surface
作者：
Highlights：
• Effects of chemical reaction on Nanofluid flow over a convectively heated stretching sheet have been studied.
• Magnetic field decreases the thickness of momentum boundary layer.
• The surface convection parameter is able to enhance heat transfer rate at the wall.
• Brownian motion and thermophoresis play an important role on fluid flow in the boundary layer region.
• The concentration boundary layer becomes thin for larger chemical reaction parameter.
