This work reports the Carreau–Yasuda nanofluid flow over a non-linearly stretching sheet viscous dissipation and chemical reaction effects. The coupled system of non-linear partial differential equations are changed into a system of linear differential equations employing similarity equations. The spectral quasi-linearization method was used to solve the linear differential equations numerically. Error norms were used to authenticate the accuracy and convergence of the numerical method. The effects of some thermophysical parameters of interest in this current study on the non-dimensional fluid velocity, concentration and temperature, the skin friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are presented graphically. Tables were used to depict the effects of selected parameters on the skin friction and the Nusselt number.
