Abstract This communication addresses a study for heterogeneous-homogeneous processes in generalized Burgers nanofluid flow past a stretching sheet in the presence new mass flux condition. Additionally, the impacts of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and nonlinear thermal radiation are taken into account. The formulated nonlinear coupled model is analytically elucidated by utilizing the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The impacts of various thermophysical parameters on magnetonanofluid temperature, concentration and local Nusselt numbers are analyzed through graphs as well as tabular form and discussed in detail. The presented results demonstrate that the thermal and concentration boundary layer thicknesses are significantly influenced by the thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters. Appreciable growth in the rate of heat transfer is observed when the Prandtl number is augmented. Moreover, it is also found that concentration profile g ( η ) is substantially influenced due to the homogeneous reaction parameter and Schmidt number.
