Abstract
This article investigates unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convective and thermally radiative Jeffrey nanofluid flow in view of a vertical stretchable cylinder with radiation absorption and heat; the reservoir was addressed. The mathematical formulation of Jeffrey nanofluid is established based on the theory of boundary layer approximations pioneered by Prandtl. The governing model expressions in partial differential equations (PDEs) form was transformed into dimensionless form via similarity transformation technique. The set of nonlinear nondimensional partial differential equations are solved with the help of the homotopic analysis method. For the purpose of accuracy, the optimizing system parameters, convergence, and stability analysis of the analytical algorithm (CSA) were performed graphically. The velocity, temperature, and concentration flow are studied and shown graphically with the effect of system parameters such as Grashof number, Hartman number, Prandtl number, thermal radiation, Schmidt number, Eckert number, Deborah number, Brownian parameter, heat source parameter, thermophoresis parameter, and stretching parameter. Moreover, the consequence of system parameters on skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number is also examined graphically and discussed.
1. Introduction

Such applications contain magnetic cell division, vehicle cooling, fusion control, cryopreservation, silicone mirror, electronics cooling, delivery of drugs, and many more of its utilization. The nanofluid is a particular class of fluids suspended by small metallic particles whose size is up to. Furthermore, nanoparticles have a higher thermal conductivity to controlled significant enhancement due to the rate of heat transfer. In the last few years, Jeffrey fluid model is one of the subclasses of fluids that has increased wide attraction to the researchers [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]. Piswas et al.

Zin et al. [13] highlighted the effect of heat transfer features for unsteady hydromagnetic convective rotating Jeffrey fluids over a porous sheet. Further, the heat transfer analysis of a Jeffrey nanofluid was investigated by Zin et al. [14]. Ramzan et al.

A time-dependent Jeffrey convective fluid flow between two revolving cylinders was analyzed by Shifang et al. [16]. Dalir et al. [17] elucidated outcomes of entropy generation in magnetohydrodynamics Jeffrey non-Newtonian nanofluid past a permeable plane sheet analyzed and discussed. Moreover, the heat flow characteristics on Jeffrey fluid have been studied. Evaluations of the hydromagnetic and radiative nature of Jeffrey fluids over a stretching plane surface enclosure by a surface slip and melting heat were disclosed by Das et al. [18]. Srinivasa and Eswara [19] studied the consequence of heat generation or absorption on the free convection flow of an incompressible, electrically conducting fluid about an isothermal truncated cone in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. A numerical model is developed to investigates the influence of magnetohydrodynamics and heat mass transference effects of a Jeffrey fluid past by a stretching surface with chemical reaction, and thermal radiation analysis was analyzed by Narayana et al.

Ijaz and Ayub [22] explored mixed convective Jeffrey fluid flow near axisymmetric stagnation point flow in view of a permeable angular cylinder with homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions are considered. Hayat et al. [23] studied boundary layer flow and heat transference effects in Jeffrey nanofluid flow with thermal conductivity, and radiation influence is taken to be temperature-dependent. Farooq et al. [24] analyzed the mutual effects of Joule heating and Newtonian heating in hydrodynamic Jeffrey fluid past by a stretching cylinder with a heat reservoir. Ghaffar et al. [25] have addressed a computational investigation of non-Newtonian viscoelastic incompressible fluid over a vertical flat surface with melting heat effects. Nanofluids are a new class of heat transfer liquids; the term nanofluid was invented by Choi [26] that contains a base fluid and nanosized material particles whose diameter less than 1–100 nm or fibers suspended in the ordinary base liquids. The nanoparticles are made of various materials. Buongiorno [27] proposed a nanofluid model to analyzed thermal conductivity and heat transfer features. Tiwari and Das [28] studied the effects of nanofluids numerically inside a two-sided lid-driven differentially heated square cavity to gain insight into convective recirculation and flow processes induced by a nanofluid. Babu et al. [29] analyzed multivariate Jeffrey fluid in view of a vertical permeable plate with hall current and evenly distributed magnetic effect. Moreover, the chemical reaction and generation of thermal radiation were evaluated. Selvi and Muthuraj [30] investigated MHD oscillatory Jeffrey convective flow in a vertical permeable channel with Joule heating and viscous dissipation.

The effects of nanoparticles on the annular condensation flow of argon–copper nanofluids passing inside a microchannel were examined by ta molecular dynamic method by Ghahremanian et al. [32]. A numerical investigation was carried out to examine the Joule heating effect on magneto hydromagnetic flow and heat transfer effects on a Jeffrey fluid in view of a permeable stretching sheet with power-law heat flux and heat source by Babu and Narayana [33]. Khan et al. [34] examine the nanomaterials for the development of heat transfer and thermal conductivity features of non-Newtonian fluids. Muhammad et al. [35] examine magnetized Carreau nanofluid conveying microorganisms over a moving wedge with velocity slip and thermal radiation features. Khan et al. [36,37] investigate single- and double-layer wire coating analysis using Phan-Thien-Tanner (PTT) viscoelastic fluid as a coating material. Hayat et al.
