Abstract
This article is concerned with the problem of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection flow of Cobalt-kerosene ferrofluid adjacent a non-isothermal wedge under the influence of thermal radiation and partial slip. Such type of problems are posed by electric generators and biomedical enforcement. The governing equations are solved using the Thomas algorithm with finite-difference type and solutions for a wide range of magnet parameter are presented. It is found that local Nusselt number manifests a considerable diminishing for magnetic parameter and magnifies intensively in case of slip factor, thermal radiation and surface temperature parameters. Further, the skin friction coefficient visualizes a sufficient enhancement for the parameters thermal radiation, surface temperature and magnetic field, but a huge reduction is recorded by promoting the slip factor.
