Abstract Three-dimensional flow of nanoliquid characterizing porous space by Darcy-Forchheimer expression is studied. Zero nanoparticles mass flux and thermal convective conditions are implemented at the boundary. The modeled equations are reduced into dimensionless quantities. The governing mathematical phenomenon is tackled via optimal homotopic procedure. Importance of physical constraints is described through the plots. Numerical benchmark is presented to study the values of skin-friction coefficients and local Nusselt number. Skin-friction coefficients are declared increasing functions of porosity and Forchheimer parameters. Moreover the local Nusselt number is reduced for larger values of porosity and Forchheimer parameters.
