Purpose

The formulation of nonlinear convective non-Newtonian material is reported in this communication. Aspects of thermal radiation and heat source are taken into account for heat transport analysis. The novel stratifications (thermal and solutal) and convective conditions are considered simultaneously. The boundary-layer concept is implemented to simplify the complex mathematical expressions.

Design/methodology/approach

The well-known optimal homotopy scheme develops the computations. Optimal values regarding nonzero auxiliary variables are calculated and examined.
