Summary: | This article concentrates on two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic stagnation flow of Jeffrey liquid on a nonlinearly stretching sheet which possesses variable thickness. Simultaneous impact of melting as well as thermal stratification is specifically investigated in this study due to their tremendous involvement in plenty of natural and industrial processes. Internal heat generation and presence of chemical species are considered to ponder at heat transfer properties. Series solution has been obtained by solving the developed nonlinear problems. Physical behavior of various controlling parameters such as velocity, thermal, and concentration fields are investigated. It has been found that temperature field decays due to higher intensity of thermal stratification parameter, but thickness of thermal boundary layer boosts up. Larger Deborah number results in incremented velocity field. For uplifted wall thickness parameter, velocity field depreciates. Concentration field declines for enhanced parameters of homogeneous as well as heterogeneous reaction. Moreover, velocity is decreasing function of porosity parameter.
