AB - Present paper utilizes a combination of non-Newtonian fluid model (Jeffrey  fluid) with Buongiorno model (nanofluid). The Jeffery fluid, which is  regarded as a base fluid, together with suspended nanoparticles are examined  over an inclined stretching sheet with the amalgamated impacts of mixed  convection and viscous dissipation. The mathematical formulation of this  model is done by choosing the appropriate similarity variables for the aim  to reduce the complexity of governing partial differential equations. The  Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF45) method is then applied to the resulting of  nonlinear ordinary differential equations to generate numerical results for  highlighting the impact of emerging parameters towards specified  distributions. Both the graphical and tabular representations of vital  engineering physical quantities are also shown and deliberated. For the  increase of Eckert number, thermophoresis diffusion and Brownian motion  parameters, the elevation of temperature profiles is observed. Besides, the  thermophoresis diffusion parameter tends to accelerate the nanoparticle  concentration profile while Brownian motion parameter displays the opposite  behavior.
