The impact of Viscous dissipation on the heat and mass transfer characteristics of an Eyring Powell nanofluid flow past a horizontal circular cylinder is intensively investigated in the presence of Dufour and Soret effects. The free laminar flow is subject to a uniform transverse magnetic field. The continuity, momentum, energy, and concentrations equations are transformed into a nonlinear system of partial differential equations using appropriate non-similarity variables. The transformed system was solved numerically using the fourth order Runge Kutta method. The effect of parameters including Prandtl number, Dufour effect, Soret effect and Schmidt number were studied and presented graphically. Nusselt and Sherwood numbers have also been derived and discussed numerically.
