Maxwell fluids display viscous flow on a long timescale but exhibit additional elastic resistance during rapid deformations. Among various types of rate-type fluids, the Maxwell fluid has achieved prominence in numerous study fields. This viscoelastic fluid has viscous and elastic properties. Due to their reduced complexity, this Maxwell fluid is utilized used in the polymeric industries. We have established a mathematical model based on the applications. This article examines the mathematical and graphical analysis for steady-state magnetohydrodynamic flow in a horizontal flat plate of Maxwell viscoelastic fluid for a permeable medium with heat and thermal radiation. The non-dimensional and similarity transformation used to frame the partial differential equations with restored ordinary differential equations. The shooting technique is originated to find solutions to nonlinear boundary value problems with the help of MATLAB software via the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method. The primary idea behind this strategy is to change the boundary conditions of boundary value problems into initial value problems. Several plots illustrate the leading parameters such as Prandtl number (Pr), Deborah number (De), Eckert number (Ec), heat generation (Q), radiation (Rd), Lewis number (Le), magnetic parameter (M), and thermal slip condition (β) on the velocity profile and energy transfer behaviour. We validated our results with published work. The most significant impact of this study is that the Nusselt number drops as the Eckert number rises and climbs when heat radiation increases. The skin friction coefficient increases as Deborah number increases.
