| Summary: | ABSTRACT: The study of the natural convective flow of a fluid in the presence of an induced magnetic field has always been of considerable importance due to its many applications in various areas of science, technology, and industry, such as the operation of magnetohydrodynamic generators. This study addresses an analysis of exponential heat source and induced magnetic field on the second-class convection of Casson fluid in a microchannel. The flow is in a vertical microchannel organized by two vertical plates. The answer to governing equations has been grabbed for temperature field, induced magnetic field, and velocity via Akbari-Ganji's method (AGM). Nusselt number, skin friction coefficient, and current density are approximated. Graphs that describe the conclusion of influential physical variables on velocity, temperature, current density, induced magnetic field, and skin friction coefficient distributions are shown. Comparison of results with numerical method (Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg, RKF-45), homotopy perturbation method, and AGM confirms the accuracy of answers obtained with AGM.
