This work provides a brief report on MHD unsteady free convection flow of viscous Maxwell nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet in the presence of radiation and the chemical reaction. The analysis explores the implications of varying parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles of the nanofluid. Additionally, the study highlights the impact of thermal radiation and reaction rates on the overall heat transfer characteristics of the system. A few nonlinear systems of partial differential equations (PDEs) that are non-dimensional by the conventional mathematical transformation technique are used to represent the model equations. The equations are then solved using the explicit finite difference method (FDEM), and the numerical results are computed using the computer programming language Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6a. The obtained numerical results demonstrate that the fluid's flow characteristic is significantly influenced by the various dimensionless factors.
