Abstract : The current study focused on heat transmission and MHD boundary layer flow over a growing exponentially sheet. Cu-H2O nanofluid has dispersed conducting dust particles. The momentum and energy equations undergo transformation into nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations, and the MATLAB bvp4c approach is being utilized to solve these equations numerically. The visualization of the temperature and velocity profiles of the flow against non-dimensional parameters, such as the magnetic field parameter M, the Prandtl number Pr, the Eckert number Ec, the mass concentration of dust particles α, the fluid particle interaction parameter for the velocity β, the volume fraction of dust particles ϕd, and the volume fraction of nanoparticles ϕ, is discussed.

Keywords : Dust and Nanoparticles, Exponentially Expanding Sheets, Nanofluid, Heat Transmission, and Boundary Layer Flow.
