Purpose. The flow of nonviscous Casson fluid is examined in this study over an oscillating surface. The model of the fluid flow has been inspected in the presence of oblique stagnation point flow. The scrutiny is subsumed for the Riga plate by considering the effects of magnetohydrodynamics. The Riga plate is considered as an electromagnetic lever which carries eternal magnets and a stretching line up of alternating electrodes coupled on a plane surface. We have considered nonboundary layer two-dimensional incompressible flow of the fluid. The fluid flow model is analyzed in the fixed frame of reference. Motivation. The motivation of achieving more suitable results has always been a quest of life for scientists; the capability of determining the boundary layer of flow on aircraft which either stays laminar or turns turbulent has encouraged the researcher to study compressible flow in depth. The compressible fluid with boundary layer flow has been utilized by numerous researchers to reduce skin friction and enhance thermal and convectional heat exchange. Design/Approach/Methodology. The attained partial differential equations will be critically inspected by using suitable similarity transformation to transform these flows thrived equations into higher nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODE). Then, these equations of motion are intercepted by mathematical techniques such as the bvp4c method in Maple and Matlab. The graphical and tabular representation of different parameters is also given. Findings. The behavior of β and modified Hartmann number M increases by positively increasing the values of both parameters for F η , while ω decreases with increasing the values of ω for F η . The graph of β shows upward behavior for distinct values for both G η and G ′ η for velocity portray. Prandtl number and β for the temperature profile of θ η and θ 1 η goes downward with increasing parameters.

This study may be applicable in heavy power engine and cooling of a nuclear reactor, insulation for buildings, petroleum reservoir operations, and magnetic material processing solar energy collectors. In this manuscript, the slip results are evaluated for the non-Newtonian fluid on the oblique stagnation point flow of induced magnetic field over the oscillating surface. The valuation of heat flux is examined through the Fourier law of heat transfer. The metallic nanoparticle Copper Cu is within the base fluid, and water is utilized in the analysis. Nanofluids have benefits such as steadiness of the working fluid, decreasing blockage, clogs, decreasing prices, decreasing the friction coefficient, and decreasing the size of the heat transfer system. Similarity variables are utilized to convert the developed flow into higher nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations (ODE) which are tackled numerically using a mathematical technique such as the bvp4c method in Maple and Matlab software. According to the present geometry, the flow behavior of the operating nanofluid has analyzed by stream lines. Disparities in velocity and temperature profile are demonstrated by graphs to describe the effects of controlling parameters. The Casson fluid parameter enhances the velocity of the fluid. The system heats up by the impact of Joule heating and dissipation.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse numerically the steady stagnation-point flow of a viscous and incompressible fluid over continuously non-aligned stretching or shrinking surface in its own plane in a water-based nanofluid which contains three different types of nanoparticles, namely, Cu, Al2O3 and TiO2. Design/methodology/approach – Similarity transformation is used to convert the system of boundary layer equations which are in the form of partial differential equations into a system of ordinary differential equations. The system of similarity governing equations is then reduced to a system of first-order differential equations and solved numerically using the bvp4c function in Matlab software. Findings – Unique solution exists when the surface is stretched and dual solutions exist as the surface shrunk. For the dual solutions, stability analysis has revealed that the first solution (upper branch) is stable and physically realizable, while the second solution (lower branch) is unstable. The effect of non-alignment is huge for the shrinking surface which is in contrast with the stretching surface. Practical implications – The results obtained can be used to explain the characteristics and applications of nanofluids, which are widely used as coolants, lubricants, heat exchangers and micro-channel heat sinks. This problem also applies to some situations such as materials which are manufactured by extrusion, production of glass-fibre and shrinking balloon. In this kind of circumstance, the rate of cooling and the stretching/shrinking process play an important role in moulding the final product according to preferable features. Originality/value – The present results are original and new for the study of fluid flow and heat transfer over a stretching/shrinking surface for the problem considered by Wang (2008) in a viscous fluid and extends to nanofluid by using the Tiwari and Das (2007) model.
