Summary: The unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of nanofluid with variable fluid properties over an inclined stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and chemical reaction is studied taking into account the effect of variable fluid properties in thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation. The numerical solutions of the problem are obtained by using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method in line with the shooting technique. It is found that the increase in both thermal conductivity and radiative heat flux decreases the heat transfer rate but increases the skin friction and mass transfer rates. It is further observed that the increase in porosity parameter and magnetic field reduces the skin friction, heat, and mass transfer rates.
