The boundary-layer flow and heat transfer in a viscous fluid contains metal nanoparticles over a
nonlinear stretching sheet is analyzed. The stretching velocity is assumed to vary as a power function of the
distance from the origin. A similarity solution is presented which depends on the nonlinear stretching parameter
n, Prandtl number Pr, Lewis number Le, Brownian motion number Nb and thermophoresis number Nt. The
boundary layer velocity, temperature and nanoparticle volume fraction profiles are then determined numerically.
The influence of various relevant parameters are discussed and comparison with published results is presented
