ABSTRACT In this paper, we discussed the combined effects of magnetic fields and Joule heating of 3D Eyring–Powell nanofluids past an exponentially stretched surface. Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is taken into account rather than the Fourier law of heat conduction. The boundary layer theory is utilized to perform the order analysis of model. Set of ordinary differential equation are acquired from a set of partial differential equations by utilizing appropriate similarity transformation. Constructed set of equations are resolved by shooting method. For several relevant parameters, the findings of velocity, temperature, and concentration profile are visually examined, and observing that the velocity profile decreases with an increase in the magnetic field. The value of skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number have been computed.
