Abstract : The consequence of nanoparticle aggregation and convective boundary condition on the nanofluid stream past the co-axial cylinder with radiation impact is investigated in the present examination. The influence of linear, nonlinear, and quadratic thermal radiation on the nanofluid flow is analyzed. The outer cylinder stays stable, while the inner cylinder deforms horizontally in the axial direction, allowing fluid to flow. By using similarity variables, the governing equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Subsequently, the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth-fifth order (RKF-45) method is employed to solve the reduced ODEs. The upshot of several nondimensional terms on the temperature and velocity profiles is displayed with graphical representation. The comparison of linear, quadratic, and nonlinear thermal radiation on the thermal profile is illustrated. The upsurge in curvature parameter increases velocity and thermal profile. The increase in radiation parameter intensifies the temperature profile. The thermal profile improves with a rise in the values of radiation parameter. The radiation parameter generates thermal energy in the flow zone, which is why the temperature field has improved. The thermal Biot number exhibits an increasing response with temperature and thermal boundary layer thickness. The linear thermal radiation shows better heat transfer compared to quadratic and nonlinear thermal radiation
