AbstractThe purpose of current work is to explore the initial working of 2D ferrofluid flow passing over an elastic sheet with effects of magnetic dipole. Sutterby fluid model is under discussion along with ferrofluids which have been studied with focus on heat and mass transfer, including thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. The particular flow design was preferred because of its common use in numerous fields such as biomedicine and engineering. In this paper, the effects of magnetic dipoles as well as thermal radiation for stretching surface in ferromagnetic fluids flow are deliberated. Moreover, the transport mechanism of heat and mass are accounted in view of stratifications and convective conditions. In this study we investigated the nonlinear Partial differential equations (PDEs) by use of some suitable similarity transformations; however, after that these Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) were analyzed numerically by using bvp4c approach. Results of viscous dissipation, Curie temperature and effects of thermal radiation on the velocity, temperature and concentration are also under consideration. Additionally, velocities, thermal gradients as well as mass transport rates are analyzed pictorially after that certain results are concluded. The major findings of this study depend on the consequence of control parameters on thermal field, momentum, and concentration. It is observed that the temperature of the magneto‐fluid increases for higher values of thermophoresis and Brownian motion interaction as well as Curie temperature parameters. The concentration distribution of ferrofluid represents an opposite trend for thermophoresis and Brownian motion.
