Abstract This work analyses thermal effect for a mixed convection flow of Maxwell nanofluid spinning motion produced by rotating and bidirectional stretching cylinder. Impacts of Joule heating and internal heat source/sink are also taken into account for current investigation. Moreover, the flow is exposed to a uniform magnetic field with convective boundary conditions. The modeled equations are converted to set of ODEs through group of similar variables and are then solved by using semi analytical technique HAM. It is observed in this study that, velocity grows up with enhancing values of Maxwell, mixed convection parameters and reduces with growing values of magnetic parameter. Temperature jumps up with increasing values of heat source, Eckert number, Brownian motion,thermophoresis parameter and jumps down with growing values of Prandtl number and heat sink. The concentration is a growing function of thermophoresis parameter and a reducing function of Brownian motion and Schmidt number.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the magnetohydrodynamics mixed convection flow over an exponentially stretching surface in the presence of non-uniform heat source/sink and cross-diffusion. Adequate non-similar transformations are used to transform governing mixed convection boundary layer equations to dimensionless form. Design/methodology/approach These dimensionless partial differential equations are solved by using implicit finite difference scheme in conjunction with Quasi-linearization technique. Findings The effects of admissible parameters such as Eckert number (Ec), the ratio of buoyancy forces parameter (N), non-uniform heat source/sink, Soret and Dufour numbers on flow, temperature and concentration distributions are discussed and analysed through graphs. In addition, the results for skin friction coefficient, Sherwood number and Nusselt number are presented and discussed graphically. Originality/value In literature, no research work has been found in similar to this research paper.
