Oral Presentation at NodyCon 2023, Rome

This chapter presents an analysis of the influence of mixed convection and variable viscosity under the impact of a transverse magnetic field on a stretching surface. Nanofluid viscidness is supposed to be reliant on temperature. The influence of variable viscidity on the transversal magnetic field and hybrid convection can be seen by using Reynold’s model.

The resulting nonlinear system of partial differential equations is transmuted into a nonlinear system of first-order ordinary differential equations by the Lobatto IIIA approach, simplifying physical flow problems.

The numerical results obtained in this study are validated and illustrated with figures and tables, which are in line with previous literature findings.

This research helps minimize fluid flow, increases fluid temperature, and modifies thermal boundary thickness by adjusting the Hartmann number. The effect of mixed convection and applied transverse magnetic field is also analyzed.
