Description
Summary:The purpose of present article is to analyze the impacts of thermal radiation and magnetic dipole in flow of ferromagnetic Williamson liquid over a stretched surface. Appropriate transformations are utilized to obtain the relevant nonlinear differential system. The obtained differential system is tackled numerically with the help of built-in-shooting method. Influence of viscous dissipation, ferromagnetic interaction parameter, cure temperature, Prandtl number, Weissenberg number (material parameter) and thermal radiation are observed on temperature and velocity fields. Further velocity and temperature gradients are discussed and analyzed graphically. The obtained outcomes declare that surface drag force and heat transfer rate enhance for higher estimation of thermal radiation and Prandtl number. Moreover velocity field decays verses Weissenberg number. Keywords: Ferromagnetic Williamson liquid, Magnetic dipole, Thermal radiation, Viscous dissipation
