Abstract
This study examines the role of magnetic field on fully developed mixed convection flow of heat generating/absorbing fluid in a vertical micro-concentric annulus with velocity slip and temperature jump at the surfaces of the cylinders. Exact solution of momentum and energy equations are obtained separately in terms of Bessel’s function and modified Bessel’s function of first and second kind. The solutions obtained are graphically represented and the effects of pertinent parameters on flow formation and skin-friction are investigated in details. Results show that the role of magnetic field is to decrease fluid velocity as well as skin-friction at the outer surface of inner cylinder. In addition, reverse flow formation can be controlled by increasing magnetic field strength.
