Abstract

This study investigates the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a nano-fluid over a stretching wedge, emphasizing the effects of multiple slip conditions and induced magnetic fluid dynamics. The presence of slip at the boundary is modeled to account for non-local effects, enhancing the understanding of fluid behavior in micro- and nano-scale applications. The governing equations are formulated and solved using numerical techniques to analyze the flow characteristics, heat transfer and induced magnetic fields. Results reveal that the inclusion of multiple slip conditions significantly alters the velocity and temperature profiles, while the interaction between the magnetic field and the nano-fluid properties leads to variations in the flow stability and thermal conductivity. The findings provide valuable insights for optimizing industrial processes involving magnetically controlled nano-fluids with potential applications in cooling systems, material processing and biomedical devices.
