Free convection boundary layer flow on a solid sphere in a nanofluid with viscous dissipation

Present study considers the mathematical model of free convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer in a nanofluid over a solid sphere with viscous dissipation effect. The transformed partial differential equations are solved numerically using the Keller-box method. The numerical values for the...
