This communication examines the entropy generation on the interaction of nanoparticles over a stretching porous sheet with nonlinear thermal radiation. The water-based Nanofluid having Nimonic 80a metal nano-particles of Bricks shape. Similarity transformations are used for the simplification of governing flow equations. Numerical results for temperature, velocity, Bejan number, and entropy profiles are obtained and investigated by Successive linearization technique and Chebyshev spectral collocation scheme. Simultaneous effects of the porous medium, Radiation parameter, nanoparticle volume fraction, Prandtl number, Brinkman number, and Reynolds number are demonstrated through graphs. Additionally, the outcomes taken from the prevailing scheme ratifies magnificent conformity with the predecessors while comparing among investigations to the existing literature. The formulation for skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are interpreted and displayed through graphs.
