The influences of nonlinear thermal radiation and chemical reaction have also taken into account. The governing Casson nanofluid flow problem consists of momentum equation, energy equation and nanoparticle concentration. Similarity transformation variables have been used to transform the governing coupled partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. The resulting highly nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations have been solved numerically with the help of Successive linearization method (SLM) and Chebyshev spectral collocation method. The impacts of various pertinent parameters of interest are discussed for velocity profile, temperature profile, concentration profile and entropy profile. The expression for local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are also analyzed and discussed with the help of tables. Furthermore, comparison with the existing is also made as a special case of our study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e18040123","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,6]],"date-time":"2016-04-06T12:54:18Z","timestamp":1459947258000},"page":"123","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":201,"title":["Entropy Generation on MHD Casson Nanofluid Flow over a Porous Stretching\/Shrinking Surface"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Jia","family":"Qing","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Key Lab of Vehicle Aerodynamics and Vehicle Thermal Management Systems, Tongji University, Shanghai 201804, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Muhammad","family":"Bhatti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Munawwar","family":"Abbas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Shanghai University, Shanghai 201804, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad","family":"Rashidi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Key Lab of Vehicle Aerodynamics and Vehicle Thermal Management Systems, Tongji University, Shanghai 201804, China"},{"name":"ENN-Tongji Clean Energy Institute of Advanced Studies, Tongji University, Shanghai 200072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mechanical Engineering Department, College of Engineering, King Saud University, P.O.
