Abstract
Current investigation characterizes the flow and heat transmission of magneto-micropolar nanofluid through a non-isothermal wedge. The base-fluid as water and micropolar nanofluid as Copper or Alumina-nanoparticles are considered. Applying the similarity transformations along with non-dimensional quantities the formulated equations of the investigation are transmuted into a system of non-linear ODEs with a collection of convenient boundary conditions. The fourth-order finite difference method (FFDM) is then applied to determine the solution of a collection of resultant equations. The outcomes obtained by FFDM have also compared with cited works. Illustrations describing influences of prominent parameters which provide physical interpretations of temperature, micro rotation and velocity fields are examined in detail with the help of graphical representations. Both the skin friction coefficient and Nusseltnumber are computed, 0 and0exhibited00through tabular forms. This investigation determined that the skin-frictioncoefficientandheat transportrate improved along with augmentation in the magnetic force. micropolar parameterand the nanoparticle volume fraction augmented the Both skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number.
