Boundary Layer Flow and Heat Transfer past a Permeable Shrinking Sheet in a Nanofluid with Radiation Effect

The steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a nanofluid over a shrinking sheet with thermal radiation and suction effects is studied. The resulting system of ordinary differential equations is solved numerically using a shooting method for three different types of nanoparticles, namely, copper...
