Purpose

Steady-state mixed convection boundary layer flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics of Buongiorno's model nanofluid over an inclined porous vertical plate with thermal radiation and chemical reaction are presented in this analysis.

Design/methodology/approach

The governing nonlinear partial differential equations represent the flow model that can be converted into system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using the similarity variables and are solved numerically using finite element method.

Findings

The rates of nondimensional temperature and concentration are both decelerate with the higher values of thermophoresis parameter (Nt).

Originality/value

The work carried out in this paper is original.
