The current communication, manifest mathematical modelling and numerical computations of Sutterby nanofluids with radiant heat assessment subject to heat generation/absorption. The thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects are incorporated via the Buongiorno model in flow governing equations. Moreover, the present analysis reveals the impacts of thermal stratification, velocity slip, and a magnetic field on flow phenomena. The non-Newtonian nature is modelled using Sutterby fluid. The proposed model is formulated mathematically through basic partial differential equations relating mass, momentum, energy, and nanoparticle concentration conservations using boundary layer theory. We adapted the generated governed equations to ordinary differential equations utilizing similarity variables mechanism. Numerical treatment for the reduced system of ordinary differential equations is performed using the built-in MATLAB code bvp4c. The impacts of distinct characterizing parameters on velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are determined and analyzed via graphs. The existence of velocity slip parameter, fluid flow is significantly dwindle, while the surface friction growth is sophisticated. Brownian and thermophoresis mechanisms degrade the heat transmission rate and escalate the mass flux. The thermal and solutal stratification exhibits opposite conduct for thermal and concentration of the nanoparticles.
