Carbon nanotubes effects in the stagnation point flow towards a nonlinear stretching sheet with variable thickness
TL;DR: In this paper, the stagnation point flow of viscous nanofluid towards a nonlinear stretching surface with variable thickness was investigated and compared for both single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and multilinear carbon nanotsubes (MWNTs), where water and kerosene oil were employed as the ordinary base fluids.
