Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study steady, laminar, natural convection boundary-layer flow over a permeable vertical cone embedded in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid in the presence of uniform lateral mass flux. The paper studies steady, laminar, natural convection boundary-layer flow over a permeable vertical cone embedded in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid in the presence of uniform lateral mass flux. The presence of nanoparticles has significant effects of heat transfer. The area of nanofluids is very original.
