The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. A similarity solution is presented which depends on the mass suction parameter S, Prandtl number Pr, Lewis number Le, Brownian motion number Nb and thermophoresis number Nt. It was found that the reduced Nusselt number is decreasing function of each dimensionless number. }, journal = {International Journal of Mathematical and Computational Sciences}, volume = {8}, number = {9}, year = {2014}, pages = {1607 - 1611}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9999424}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/93}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 93, 2014}, }
