In this research study, computational investigations are prepared to demonstrate the influence of the nonhomogeny magnetic source on the thermal efficiency of the convergent tube with the nanofluid flow. The major attention of our examination is to analyze the flow stream and temperature spreading on the average Nusselt number of the base fluid with Fe2O3 nanoparticles. The effects of inlet velocity and magnetic intensity on the thermal characteristics of nanofluid stream through the convergent tube are fully investigated. SIMPLEC algorithm is used for the imitation of the incompressible nanofluid flow inside the convergent tube. Our results indicate that growing Reynolds number from 50 to 100 surges heat rates up to 18% in the convergent tube because of the existence of the magnetic field in the vicinity of the tube.
