Effects of iron nanoparticles' shape on convective flow of ferrofluid under highly oscillating magnetic field over stretchable rotating disk

The persistence of the current article is to discuss the iron nanoparticles' shape in flows due to highly oscillating magnetic field over a stretchable rotating disk. For ferrofluid, water is considered as base fluid with suspension of iron nanoparticles having sphere, oblate ellipsoid and prolate ellipsoid shapes with different sizes. The impact of the nanoparticles' shape on velocity and temperature profiles, convective heat transfer coefficient, radial and transverse shear stress is deliberated through graphs and tables. The presence of highly oscillating magnetic field forces the particles to rotate faster than the fluid and, as a result, the total viscosity is certainly reduced. The governing equations, which are firstly modeled and thereafter converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations in dimensionless form using similarity approach, are analytically solved using the Mathematica package BVPh 2.0 which is based on the homotopy analysis method (HAM).
