Heat transfer is an important process in many engineering, industrial, residential, and commercial buildings. Thus, this study aims to analyse the effect of MHD and viscous dissipation on radiative heat transfer of Reiner–Philippoff fluid flow over a nonlinearly shrinking sheet. By adopting appropriate similarity transformations, the partial derivatives of multivariable differential equations are transformed into the similarity equations of a particular form. The resulting mathematical model is elucidated in MATLAB software using the bvp4c technique. To determine the impact of physical parameters supplied into the problem, the results are shown in the form of tables and graphs. The findings reveal that the heat transfer rate reduces as the Eckert number and radiation parameter are introduced in the operating fluid. However, increasing the magnetic parameter raises both the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number, which impulsively improves the heat transfer performance. The suction effect has a noticeable influence on the Reiner–Philippoff fluid, since increasing the suction parameter's value is seen to enhance the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer performance. The dual solutions are established, leading to the stability analysis that supports the first solution’s validity.

This paper aims to examine the MHD effects on Reiner–Philippoff fluid flow over a permeable shrinking wedge. The partial derivatives of multivariable differential equations are transformed into similarity equations by adopting appropriate similarity transformations. The resulting equations are solved in MATLAB using the bvp4c technique. The findings reveal that the existence of the magnetic field is proven to improve the friction factor and heat transfer performance. Similar effects are observed with the rise of the suction strength. However, increasing the Reiner–Philippoff fluid parameter lowers the heat transfer rate but increases the friction factor. Moreover, the Lorentz force created by the magnetic field essentially slows the fluid motion, thereby delaying the separation of the boundary layer. The dual solutions are established, leading to the stability analysis that supports the first solution's validity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
