Abstract
The impacts of Newtonian heating and a magnetic dipole in a two-dimensional ferrofluid due to a stretchable cylinder are analyzed in this paper. The effects of the homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions and a magnetic dipole are taken into account. Flow is caused by a linear stretching cylinder. Fourier’s law of heat conduction is applied in the evaluation of heat flux. Impacts of emerging parameters on the magneto–thermomechanical coupling are examined numerically. It is seen that the characteristics of magneto–thermomechanical interaction decelerate the movements of fluid particles, thereby strengthening the skin friction coefficient and reducing the heat transfer rate at the surface. Further, it is evident that the curvature parameter has increasing behaviour on the rate of heat transfer in the boundary layer. Comparison with available results for specific cases is found to be in excellent agreement.
