The impact of nonlinear thermal radiation in the flow of micropolar nanofluid past a nonlinear vertically stretching surface is investigated. The electrically conducting fluid is under the influence of magnetohydrodynamics, heat generation/absorption and mixed convection in the presence of convective boundary condition. The system of differential equations is solved numerically using the bvp4c function of MATLAB. To authenticate our results, two comparisons with already studied problems are also conducted and an excellent concurrence is found; hence reliable results are being presented. Complete deliberation for magnetite nanofluid with Ferric Oxide (FeO) nanoparticles in the water-based micropolar nanofluid is also given to depict some stimulating phenomena. The effect of assorted parameters on velocity, homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions, temperature and micropolar velocity profiles are discussed and examined graphically. Moreover, graphical illustrations for the Nusselt number and Skin friction are given for sundry flow parameters. It is examined that temperature distribution and its associated boundary layer thickness increase for mounting values of the magnetic parameter. Additionally, it is detected that the Nusselt number decays when we increase the values of the Biot number.

Fluid flow across a Riga Plate is a specialized phenomenon studied in boundary layer flow and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) applications. The Riga Plate is a magnetized surface used to manipulate boundary layer characteristics and control fluid flow properties. Understanding the behavior of fluid flow over a Riga Plate is critical in many applications, including aerodynamics, industrial, and heat transfer operations.

Flows in nanofluidic channels under the influence of pressure gradient often lead to the overlapping of the electrical double layers (EDLs) augmenting the electroviscous effect. In this work, we analyze the electroviscous effect for the flow of a micropolar fluid in a parallel plate nanochannel, considering EDL overlapping and interfacial slip. Closed-form expressions of EDL potential, velocity, microrotation, yielded streaming potential, and volumetric flow rate are derived semi-analytically for high zeta potential without accounting for the Boltzmann distribution.

This work provides a brief comparative analysis of the influence of heat creation on micropolar blood-based unsteady magnetised hybrid nanofluid flow over a curved surface. The Powell-Eyring fluid model was applied for modelling purposes, and this work accounted for the impacts of both viscous dissipation and Joule heating. By investigating the behaviours of Ag and TiO nanoparticles dispersed in blood, we aimed to understand the intricate phenomenon of hybridisation.

Hydromagnetically associated heat convection can greatly enhance the performance of high-efficiency thermal appliances and renewable energy sources through an optimized design. This investigation examines the production of thermodynamic irreversibility and heat convection for a double lid-driven flow within a partially porous stratified hexagonal enclosure. The top and bottom-wall are moving in the opposite direction with an equal velocity U.
