Abstract

AbstractThis article examines the inclined magnetic field effect on the flow of micropolar nanofluids in a vertical channel with convective boundary conditions and heat source or sink. Thermodynamics second law is employed to analyze the aspects of entropy generation. The governing differential equations are modified into dimensionless form by using suitable nondimensional variables. These transformed equations are solved by implementing the differential transform technique. The results are analyzed graphically. Skin friction and Nusselt number values are evaluated at the boundary walls of the channel. The major findings of the study are material parameter enhances the microrotation but suppresses both velocity and temperature. Magnetic parameter and angle of the implication of magnetic field decrease the velocity and microrotation. Material parameter and angle of imposed magnetic field minimize the entropy generation.
