To remove the difficulties in illustrating the coupled PDE’s, the finite-difference scheme with efficient primitive-variable formulation is proposed to transform dimensionless equations. The numerical simulations of coupled non-dimensional equations are computed in terms velocity of fluid, temperature and magnetic field which are computed to examine the fluctuating components of skin friction, heat transfer and current density for various emerging parameters. The governing parameters namely, thermally stratification parameter KW - Mixed-convection KW - oscillatory stratified flow KW - non-conducting cylinder KW - thermal stratification KW - heat transfer DO - 10.32604/cmc.2020.011468
