Abstract

The improved thermal association of heat transfer is considerably observed due to interaction of nanoparticles in recent days. The lubrication phenomenon with heat and mass transfer effects plays a key role in the hydraulic systems. In current research, the thermal impact of nanofluid over a lubricated stretching surfaces near a stagnation point analytical has been studied. A thin layer of lubricating fluid with a variable thickness provides lubrication. The inspection of thermophoresis and Brownian motion phenomenon is illustrated via Boungrino model. The analytical finding of refurbished boundary layer ordinary differential equations is obtained by a reliable and proficient technique namely variational iteration method (VIM). The Lagrange Multiplier is a potent tool in proposed technique to reduce the computational work. In addition, a numerical comparison is presented to show the effectiveness of this study. The range of flow parameters is based on theoretical flow assumptions. Physical inspection of involved parameters on velocities, temperatures, concentrations, and other quantities of interest when lubrication is presented. The current results present applications in polymer process, manufacturing systems, heat transfer and hydraulic systems.
