e aim of this paper is to investigate the flow of MHD mixed convection nanofluid flow under nonlinear heated due to an
extending surface. e transfer of heat in nanofluid subject to a magnetic field and boundary conditions of convective is studied to
obtain the physical meaning of the convection phenomenon. e governing partial differential equations (PDEs) of the boundary
layer are reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) considering a technique of the transformation of similarity. e
transformed equations are solved numerically considering the technique of an efficient numerical shooting applying the
Runge–Kutta technique scheme from the fourth-fifth order. e results corresponding to the dimensionless speed, temperature,
concentration profiles, and the Nusselt number reduced, and the Sherwood numbers are presented by figures to display the
physical meaning of the phenomena. A comparison has been made between the obtained results with the previous results obtained
by others and agrees with them if the new parameters vanish. e results obtained indicate the impacts of the nondimensional
governing parameters, namely, magnetic field parameter M, Soret number Sr, heat source λ, thermal buoyancy parameterλ
T
, and
solutal buoyancy parameterλ

on the flow, temperature, and concentration profiles being discussed and presented graphically.
1. Introduction
Nanofluids are suspended particles of the fluid. ey have
particles with a nanometer size, and they have a less uniform
dispersion in the rigid particles. Nanofluids have crucial
usages in science and technology, marine engineering, and
applications in the field of industry such as plastic, polymer
industries, cancer home therapy, and building sciences. ey
flow through transferring vertical plane plate also having
enormous applications in the field of aerosols engineering,
aerodynamics, and civil engineering and because of this
reason, the researchers are likely to investigate this field.
Nonlinear warm air radiation and chemical reaction effects
on MHD 3D Casson fluid movement in the porous medium
were considered by Sulochana et al. [1]. Wahiduzzaman et al.
[2] investigated MHD Casson fluid movement going
through a nonisothermal porous linearly stretching sheet.
Ramreddy et al. [3] analyzed the Soret effect on mixed
convection flow in a nanofluid under convective boundary
condition radiation and the Soret effects of MHD nanofluid
moving freely from a moving vertical moving plate in the
porous medium were discussed by Raju et al. [4]. e mixed
convective flow of Maxwell nanofluid goes beyond an ab-
sorbent vertical stretched surface. An optimal solution is
considered by Ramzan et al. [5]. Stagnation electrical MHD
nanofluid varied convection with slip boundary on a
stretching sheet was discussed by Hsiao [6]. Rafique et al. [7]
have obtained the numerical solution of casson nanofluid
streams over a nonlinear sloping surface through Soret and
Dufour effects by the Keller–Box method. Mkhatshwa et al.
[8] investigated the MHD mixed convective nanofluid flow
about a vertical thin cylinder using the interfering
