Abstract Present work is devoted to the convection flow of viscous fluid by a curved stretching sheet. Fluid is electrically conducting with the presence of uniform magnetic field. Heat and mass transfer characteristics are studied by using heat and mass convective conditions. Thermal radiation and chemical reaction are also taken into consideration. With the help of allocated transformations the presented nonlinear partial differential systems are reduced into the nonlinear ordinary differential system. Impact of pertinent parameters on physical quantities like fluid velocity, temperature and concentrations fields are observed. Computations for surface shear stress and heat and mass transfer rates are carried out. It is observed that pressure inside the boundary layer flow due to curved stretching plate cannot be neglected.
