This study analyzed the characteristics of heat transfer in non-Newtonian ferrofluids produced by stretchable sheet and investigated the effects of Arrhenius activation energy and magnetic dipole. By applying a similarity ansatz and Runge-Kutta method, the computational solution for the governing system was determined. The influence of beneficial physical parameters on momentum, energy, and concentration profiles was shown through graphs.
In this study, we analyzed the characteristics of heat transfer in non-Newtonian ferrofluids produced by stretchable sheet. Further, we investigated in this study the effects of Arrhenius activation energy and magnetic dipole. We use in this study, a similarity ansatz to simplify the governing system into a nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations system. We determined the computational solution of the resulting ordinary differential system by applying method with Runge-Kutta method. The influence of beneficial physical parameters on momentum, energy, and concentration profile are shown through graphs. The major finding of this study, the variation of velocity field is reduces for the higher values of M, beta, and H. The temperature field increases for higher values of R, and reduce for Pr. Further, we conclude in this study the arising or reducing in the concentration, temperature, and velocity field for various physical parameters. The impacts of physical quantities namely skin fraction, Nusselt, and Sherwood numbers are examined through numerically via tables.
