Heat transfer analysis in ferromagnetic viscoelastic fluid flow over a stretching sheet with suction

In this article, an investigation has been performed to explore the two-dimensional boundary layer flow problem and heat transfer characteristic of ferromagnetic viscoelastic fluid flow over a stretching surface with a linear velocity under the impact of magnetic dipole and suction. The governing PDEs are converted into a system of nonlinear ODEs by applying appropriate similarity approach. The modelled equations are then solved numerically by utilizing efficient Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg procedure based on shooting algorithm. Influence of pertinent flow parameter involved, such as ferromagnetic interaction parameter, suction parameter, viscoelastic parameter, Prandtl number on dimensionless velocity, temperature, skin friction, and Nusselt inside the boundary layer, are portrayed graphically and discussed. The results show that pressure profile and skin friction coefficient increase with the variation of ferromagnetic interaction parameter and opposite behaviour is noted for local Nusselt number.
