Optimization of Heat Transfer Properties of Nanofluid Flow Over a Shrinking Surface Through Mathematical Modeling

In the current study, a three dimensional incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow over a shrinking surface with associated thermal buoyancy, thermal radiation, and heating absorption effects, as well as viscous dissipation have been investigated. The model has been represented in a s...
