Crane [1] first obtained an elegant analytical solution to the boundary layer equations for the problem of steady two-dimensional flow due to a stretching surface in a quiescent incompressible fluid. Carragher and Crane [2] studied the heat transfer in the flow over a stretching surface in the case when the temperature difference between the surface and the ambient fluid is proportional to the power of distance from fixed point. Na and Pop [3] studied an unsteady flow past a stretching sheet. The thermal radiation effect is a new dimension added to the study of stretching surface has important applications in physics and engineering particularly in space technology and high temperature process. It plays an important role in controlling the heat transfer process in polymer processing industry. The study of radiative heat transfer within the influence of magnetic field over a stretching surface has newly arrived. Pop et al. [4] investigated the flow over stretching sheet near a stagnation point taking the effect of thermal radiation. The research of nanofluids has gained huge attention in recent years. Jang and Choi [5] investigated the analysis of convective instability and heat transfer characteristics of the nanofluids. Jang and Choi [6] studied the effect of various parameters on nanofluid thermal conductivity. Kumar [7] inves- tigated the radiative heat transfer with the viscous dissipation effect in the presence of transverse magnetic field. Khan and Pop [8] have investigated boundary layer flow of a nanofluid past a stretching sheet. Very recently a number of studies of MHD boundary layer fluid (e.g., nanofluid) flow with the effects of thermal radiation, vis- cous dissipation and Nanofluid were reported in the literature [9] - [25] . But the effect of rotation is still not get- ting promising attraction to the researchers.

Our prime objective is to extend analysis of Khan and Pop [8] . This study finds the effect of rotation, thermal radiation and viscous dissipation on boundary layer flow of nanofluid past a stretching sheet of a rotating sys- tem.

The steady two dimensional boundary layer flow of a nanofluid past a stretching surface of a rotating system is considered with the linear stretching velocity, where constant and x is coordinate measured along the stretching surface. The flow takes place at where y is the coordinate measured normal to the stretch- ing surface. A steady uniform stress leading to equal and opposite forces is applied along the x-axis, so that the sheet is stretched keeping the origin fixed. The sketch of the physical configuration and coordinate system are shown in Figure 1 by following Khan and Pop [8] .

It is assumed that at the stretching surface, the temperature and the concentration takes constant value and respectively. The ambient values attained as tends to infinity of and are denoted by and respectively. A uniform magnetic field B is imposed to the plate. The magnetic vector can be taken as and is the radiative heat flux in the y-direction. The velocity of the plate (uniform velocity) considered as. Also a and b are the linear constant parameter, l is the characteristics length and, is the constant whose values depends on the properties of the fluid. Under this assumption and usual boundary layer approximation MHD nanofluid flow is governed by the following equations [8] :

and the boundary condition for the model is

where, is the thermal diffusivity, k is the thermal conductivity, is the Brownian diffusion coefficient, is the thermophoresis diffusion coefficient, x is the coordinate measured along stretching surface, is the stretching velocity, is the uniform velocity, a and b the linear constant parameter, l is the characteristics length and is the constant whose values depends on the properties of the fluid.

In order to find a similarity solution to the Equations (2) to (5) with boundary conditions (6), the following similarity transformations, dimensionless variables are used in the rest of analysis:

From the above transformations the non-dimensional, nonlinear, coupled ordinary differential equations are obtained as:

The transformed boundary conditions are as follows:

where the notation primes denote differentiation with respect to and the parameters are defined as:

is the Magnetic parameter,

is the Radiation parameter,

is the Prandtl number,

is the Eckert number,

is the Rotational parameter,

is the Lewis number,

is the Brownian motion parameter,

is the Thermophoresis parameter and

is the Stretching parameter and is the Constant parameter.

The physical quantities of importance in stretching sheet transport modeling [10] [11] are the skin friction coefficient, the reduced Nusselt number, and reduced Sherwood number, which are calculated respectively by the following equations:

where is the Reynolds number. The reduced skin friction coefficient, the reduced Nusselt number and reduced Sherwood number has an inordinate influence in the model as these possessions are the function of local Reynolds number. This dimensionless parameter used to predict analogous flow patterns in the boun- dary layer nanofluid flow past a rotating stretching sheet. Also the governing mathematical models describes for the laminar flow which occurs at low Reynolds numbers. Where the viscous forces are dominant, and are cate- gorized by smooth, continuous motion of nanofluid.

The governing equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations which depends on the Magnetic parameter, the Radiation parameter, the Prandtl number, the Eckert number, the Rotational parameter, the Lewis number, the Brownian motion parameter, the Thermophoresis parameter, Stretching parameter and constant parameter respectively.

The obtained non-linear coupled ordinary differential Equations (8)-(11) with boundary condition (12) are solved numerically using Nactsheim-Swigert shooting technique together with Runge-Kutta six order iteration schemes [26] . For the purpose of this method, the Nactsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique [26] together with Runge-Kutta six order iteration scheme is taken and determines the temperature and concentration as a function of the coordinate.
