Abstract In this study, we analyzed three‐dimensional magnetohydrodynamic non‐Newtonian and Newtonian fluid motion, transfer of heat and mass over a stretching surface with Brownian flow, thermophoresis, and Dufour effects. By Runge‐Kutta based shooting method, the transformed governing equations are solved numerically. With the facilitate of tables and graphs, momentum, energy and mass profiles along with the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are analyzed in the influence of nondimensional parameters. It is established that enhance the stretching ratio parameter improves the energy and concentration transfer rate. The transfer of energy and concentration rate in the Newtonian fluid is relatively low while compared with non‐Newtonian fluid.
