Abstract The present study is carried out to examine the effects of temperature dependent variable viscosity on the three dimensional steady axi-symmetric Ferrohydrodynamic (FHD) boundary layer flow of an incompressible electrically nonconducting magnetic fluid in the presence of a rotating disk. The disk is subjected to an externally applied magnetic field and is maintained at a uniform temperature. The nonlinear coupled partial differential equations governing the boundary layer flow are non dimensionalized using similarity transformations and are reduced to a system of coupled ordinary differential equations. To study the effects of temperature dependent viscosity on velocity profiles and temperature distribution within… More >
