description | The impact of temperature dependent thermal conductivity and convective surface conditions on unsteady 3D Sisko nanofluid flow over a stretching surface is studied in the presence of heat generation/absorption and magnetic field. The numerical solution of nonlinear coupled equations has been carried out to explore the properties of different physical profiles of the fluid flow with varying of parameters. Specifically, the application of generalized Biot numbers and heat generation/absorption parameter in the sketching of temperature and concentration profiles are explored. The effect of all three parameters is noticed in the increasing order for shear thinning (0<n<1) and for shear thickening (n>1) fluids. Moreover, the influence of Biot number γ1 on heat and mass transfer rates, are found in the enhancement and diminishing conducts respectively, in both cases of shear thinning as well as shear thickening fluids and a reverse trend is observed with the variation of Biot number γ2. Additionally, the present results are validated through skin friction, heat and mass transfer rate values with the comparable values in the existing previous values.
