Abstract
This article considers the flow and heat transfer of a single and multi-walled carbon nanotube over a sensor surface. For this persistence, a mathematical forming is established with the aspects of thermal radiation. In addition, the stimuli of magnetic properties and variable thermal conductivity are presented. By means of noteworthy conversions, nonlinear PDEs are altered into nonlinear ODEs and elucidated via a numerical approach in virtue of the Runge-Kutta fourth order method scheme. The repercussion of countless variables of flow and energy transfer characteristics are portrayed and conferred. These upshots portray that the enhancement of heat is bounteous in a single-wall nanotube when compared with multiwall nanotubes. Further, the velocity field is contracted for enhancing the values of M.
