In this paper, the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Maxwell fluid past a stretching plate with suction/ injection in the presence of nanoparticles is investigated. The Lie symmetry group transformations are used to convert the boundary layer equations into non-linear ordinary differential equations. The dimensionless governing equations are solved numerically using Bvp4c with MATLAB, which is a collocation method equivalent to the fourth order mono-implicit Runge-Kutta method. The effects of some physical parameters, such as the elastic parameter K, the Hartmann number M, the Prandtl number Pr, the Brownian motion Nb, the thermophoresis parameter Nt and the Lewis number Le, on the velocity, temperature and nanoparticle fraction are studied numerically especially when suction and injection at the sheet are considered.

We examine the problem of flow and heat transfer in a second grade fluid over a stretching sheet [K. Vajravelu, T. Roper, Int. J. Nonlinear Mech. 34, 1031 (1999)]. The equations considered by Vajravelu and Roper [K. Vajravelu, T. Roper, Int. J. Nonlinear Mech. 34, 1031 (1999)], are found to be incorrect in the literature. In this paper, we not only corrected the equation but found a useful analytic solution to this important problem. We also extended the problem for hydromagnetic flow and heat transfer with Hall effect. The explicit analytic homotopy solution for the velocity field and heat transfer are presented. Graphs for the velocity field, skin friction coefficient, and rate of heat transfer are presented. Tables for the skin friction coefficient and rate of heat transfer are also presented. The convergence of the solution is also properly checked and discussed.
