<abstract>This paper analyzes the steady boundary layer flow of magneto-nanofluid, due to an exponentially permeable stretching sheet with viscous dissipation. In this paper, the effect of viscous dissipation on heat transfer and nanoparticle volume friction is considered. The similarity ordinary differential equations were then solved by MATLAB bvp4c solver. This study reveals that the governing parameters, namely, the magnetic parameter, wall mass suction parameter, Prandtl number, the Lewis number, Eckert number, Brownian motion parameter, and thermophoresis parameter have major effects on the flow field. The heat transfer, and the nanoparticle volume friction as well as skin friction, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number has been discussed in detail.</abstract>
