Description
Summary:This study investigates the flow dynamics of magnetohydrodynamic Burgers' fluid induced by a stretching cylinder, emphasizing the effects of internal heat generation and absorption. A temperature-dependent heat source is integrated to examine the characteristics of thermal energy transfer within the system. By applying boundary layer theory, we transform the governing partial differential equations into a standard system of ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations. The BVP4C method is utilized to accurately solve the resulting equations for velocity and temperature profiles. Graphical representations illustrate the influence of various physical parameters on both thermal and flow profiles, supported by comprehensive analytical interpretations. To validate our findings, a comparison with existing literature is performed, confirming the consistency and significance of our results. This research offers valuable insights into the thermal and fluid behaviors of Burgers' fluids, with promising applications in the development of advanced biomedical devices.
