Abstract

The features of ferromagnetic fluids make it supportive for an extensive range of usages in directing magnetic drugs and magnetic hyperthermia. Owing to all such potential applications, the current study is concerned with the ferromagnetic liquid flow past a stretching sheet with thermophoretic particle deposition and a magnetic dipole. The equations of described flow are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by selecting suitable similarity variables. These ODEs are later solved numerically by the fourth and fifth-order Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg (RKF-45) technique by using a shooting scheme. The influence of sundry parameters on velocity, thermophoretic diffusive deposition velocity, skin-friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, thermal and concentration profiles are illustrated graphically. The results reveal that the increase in ferromagnetic interaction parameter improves the thermal profile but declines the velocity and concentration profiles. The imposition of thermophoretic particle deposition results in declination of the mass transfer. The escalating values of the ferromagnetic interaction parameter decline the rate of heat transfer. Finally, the rise in values of the thermophoretic parameter and thermophoretic coefficient decays thermophoretic diffusive deposition velocity.
