The impacts of multiple slips with viscous dissipation on the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a non-Newtonian nanofluid\nover a stretching surface have been investigated numerically. The Casson fluid model is applied to characterize the non-Newtonian\nfluid behavior. Physical mechanisms responsible for Brownian motion and thermophoresis with chemical reaction are accounted\nfor in the model. The governing nonlinear boundary layer equations through appropriate transformations are reduced into a set of\nnonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically using a shooting method with fourth-order Runge-Kutta\nintegration scheme. Comparisons of the numerical method with the existing results in the literature are made and an excellent\nagreement is obtained. The heat transfer rate is enhanced with generative chemical reaction and concentration slip parameter,\nwhereas the reverse trend is observed with destructive chemical reaction and thermal slip parameter. It is also noticed that the\nmass transfer rate is boosted with destructive chemical reaction and thermal slip parameter. Further, the opposite influence is\nfound with generative chemical reaction and concentration slip parameter.
