Numerical simulation for MHD slip flow with heat transfer over a stretching bullet-shaped object

Abstract

This paper investigates magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer slip flow with heat transfer over a bullet shaped object. The study addresses a significant problem in fluid dynamics and heat transport with applications in various engineering and industrial domains, including aerospace, material processing, and energy systems. The governing equations are resolved using the bvp4c, an inbuilt MATLAB tool, and the arithmetic computation for the momentum and thermotic equations are executed. The results are exhibited graphically. Numerical outcomes are graphically depicted with the aid of velocity and temperature profiles for several model variables. The achieved results exhibit a promising agreement with the previously established findings available in the open literature. The heat transfer processes and fluid flow are remarkably influenced by means of the ratio of surface thickness and stretching potential. The results obtained designated that the Mixed convection parameter λ increases momentum BL thickness, whereas the temperature profile diminishes. Furthermore, momentum and temperature profile improve for surface thickness parameter $s$. The current investigation highlights the potential utility of heat transport rate and friction factor in the industrial divisions for regulating cooling rates and enhancing the quality of end products.
