This paper presents the study of momentum and heat transfer characteristics in a hydromagnetic flow of dusty fluid over an inclined stretching sheet with non-uniform heat source/sink, where the flow is generated due to a linear stretching of the sheet. Using a similarity transformation, the governing equations of the problem are reduced to a coupled third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations and are solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg fourth-fifth-order method using symbolic software Maple. Our numerical solutions are shown to agree with the available results in the literature and then employ the numerical results to bring out the effects of the fluid-particle interaction parameter, local Grashof number, angle of inclination, heat source/sink parameter, Chandrasekhar number, and the Prandtl number on the flow and heat transfer characteristics. The results have possible technological applications in liquid-based systems involving stretchable materials.

This report presents the flow and heat transfer characteristics on magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian fluid across a wedge near the stagnation point. The fluid flow is time independent and laminar. The radiation and irregular heat sink/source effects are deemed. The system of nonlinear ODEs is attained from PDEs by choosing the proper similarity transformations. Further, the well-known shooting and Runge-Kutta methods are utilized to acquire the problem’s solution subject to assumed boundary conditions. Figures are outlined to emphasize the impact of several parameters on the fields of velocity and temperature. Further, the rate of heat transfer and friction factor are also anticipated and portrayed with the assistance of table. Results indicate that the curves of velocity diminish with shrinking parameter, magnetic field parameter and material fluid parameter. Also the non-uniform heat source/sink parameters play a crucial role in the heat transfer performance.

A magnetic hydrodynamic (MHD) of an incompressible viscoelastic fluid over a stretching sheet with electric and magnetic dissipation and nonuniform heat source/sink has been studied. The buoyant effect and the electric numberE1couple with magnetic parameterMto represent the dominance of the electric and magnetic effects, and adding the specific item of nonuniform heat source/sink is presented in governing equations which are the main contribution of this study. The similarity transformation, the finite-difference method, Newton method, and Gauss elimination method have been used to analyze the present problem. The numerical solutions of the flow velocity distributions, temperature profiles, and the important wall unknown values off''(0)andθ'(0)have been carried out. The parameter Pr,E1, orEccan increase the heat transfer effects, but the parameterMorA*may decrease the heat transfer effects.

In the presence of slips, non-uniform heat source/sink, thermal radiation and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), micropolar hybrid nanofluid and heat transfer over a stretching sheet has been studied. The problem is modelled as a mathematical formulation that involves a system of the partial differential equation. The similarity approach is adopted, and self-similar ordinary differential equations are obtained and then those are solved numerically using the shooting method. The flow field is affected by the presence of physical parameters such as micropolar parameter, magnetic field parameter, suction parameter and slip parameter whereas the temperature field is affected by thermal radiation parameter, space-dependent parameter, temperature-dependent internal heat generation/absorption parameter, Prantl number and Biot number. The skin friction coefficient, couple stress and local Nusselt number are tabulated and analysed. The effects of the governing parameters on the velocity profiles, angular velocity profiles and temperature profiles are illustrated graphically. The results of velocity profiles, angular velocity profiles and temperature profiles are also obtained for several values of each parameters involved.
