Abstract

The present article addresses the steady incompressible convective flow of kinetic theory-based Eyring-Powell fluid conveying nano-sized particle from a vertical plate with convective boundary condition and distribution of nanoparticles fraction over its surface. Cattaneo-Christov model is imposed to scrutinize the heat transfer analysis. A revised Buongiorno nanoscale model is adopted, which considers zero nanoparticle flux at the wall surface and simulates physically more viable scenarios for nanoparticle distribution. The study has applications in designing heat exchangers, cooling metallic plates, surface coating dynamics etc. The reduced non-linear equations in (
