The flow of fluid past a stretching sheet under heat and mass transfer analysis is significant because it has numerous applications in engineering technology, including metal spinning, polymer extrusion, the manufacture glass fibres, casting etc. current article investigates effects thermal radiation source/sink on 3D nanofluid over an elongated surface embedded porous medium with nanoparticles aggregation. Further, significance variable magnetic field one striking features present study. We have considered copper (metallic) titania (metallic oxide) as water base fluid. effective conductivity predicted by using modified Maxwell model. Applying similarity transformations, governing PDEs are transformed into nonlinear ODEs solved numerically MATLAB software bvp4c shooting method. Graphs tables plotted to depict parameters velocity temperature profiles well skin friction coefficient Nusselt number. existence radiative parameter more advantageous for improving transmission. distribution enhanced due presence Thus, impact aggregation supportive theoretical tool future bioengineering industrial applications.
