Influence of variable magnetic field on Fe3O4-H2O heat transfer in a cavity with circular hot cylinder is investigated. Innovative numerical method is chosen, namely CVFEM. The effects of radiation parameter, Rayleigh and Hartmann numbers on hydrothermal characteristics are presented. Results indicated that Lorentz forces cause the nanofluid motion to decrease and augment the thermal boundary layer thickness. Temperature gradient augments with augmentation of radiation parameter, Rayleigh number, but it reduces with augmentation of Lorentz forces.
