Abstract Nowadays external magnetic fields are capable of setting the thermal and physical properties of magnetic-nanofluids and regulate the flow and heat
transfer characteristics. The strength of the applied magnetic field affects the thermal conductivity of magnetic nanofluids and makes it aeolotropic.
With this incentive, we investigate the flow and heat transfer of electrically conducting liquid film flow of Carreau nanofluid over a stretching sheet
by considering the aligned magnetic field in the presence of space and temperature dependent heat source/sink and viscous dissipation. For this study,
we considered kerosene as the base fluid embedded with More >
