Abstract
This study examines the effect of non-linear radiation and viscous dissipation on the convective Newtonian fluid flow with temperature-dependent viscosity and the quadratic Boussinesq approximation around a cylinder with uniform heat flux at the wall. The coupled partial differential equations of the problem are non-dimensionalized with appropriate variables and reduced via stream functions. Regular perturbation technique is employed to transform the nonlinear coupled partial differential equations into a system of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations solved using the Trapezoidal method. A surge in the radiative parameter was found to heighten the fluid’s velocity and temperature, while an increase in the dissipative effect enhances the skin friction and heat transfer distributions. The limiting cases of the model considered and the results obtained in this study are consistent with those in the literature.
