Abstract	Winifred Nduku Mutuku Mathematics Department, Kenyatta University, P. O. Box 43844 Nairobi, Kenya mutukuwinnie@gmail.com Abstract By the current analysis, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer over a permeable moving surface due to a nanofluid with the effects of thermal radiation and viscous dissipation has been investigated. The model transport equations used in the analysis incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The governing non-linear boundary layer equations of the problem are formulated and transformed into coupled higher order non-linear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. The resultant equations are then solved numerically using fourth order Runge–Kutta method along with shooting technique. Graphical results elucidating the effects of various thermophysical parameters on the velocity, temperature, skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented and discussed quantitatively taking into account the industrial and engineering applications. It is noted that increasing magnetic field, radiation, viscous dissipation, thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters leads to an increase the fluid temperature hence a reduction in the reduced Nusselt number. A comparison with previous studies available in the literature has been done and an excellent agreement established.
