In this study, the transport of Al2O3 nanoparticles in ethylene glycol conventional fluid over a linearly stretching cylinder is investigated. The current research employs a convective surface boundary condition for heat transfer exploration. Flux model proposed by Rosseland is employed to examine effect of thermal radiations. The governing flow problem comprises highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Similarity transformations are used to reduce the equations in similar forms, which are then solved by Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth-fifth order numerical scheme with shooting algorithm in MATLAB software. In order to authenticate the accuracy of our results, we have contrasted results with those obtained by Ishak et al., Wang, and Pandey and Kumar and found that they are in better concord, as revealed in Table 2. The impact of numerous emerging parameters on velocity distribution and heat transfer distribution are argued in all aspects and depicted through graphs.
