The problem of mixed convection flow of a heat generating/absorbing fluid in the presence existence of Lorentz forces in a vertical micro circular subjected to a periodic sinusoidal temperature change at the surface has been studied taking the first-order slip and jump effects into consideration. The research analysis is carried out by considering a fully developed parallel flow and steady periodic regime. The governing equations, together with the constraint equations which arise from the definition of mean velocity and temperature, are written in a dimensionless form and mapped into equations in the complex domain. One obtains two independent boundary value problems, which provide the mean value and the oscillating term of the velocity and temperature distributions. These boundary value problems are solved analytically. A parametric study of some of the physical parameters involved in the problem is conducted. The results of this research revealed that the magnetic field has a damping impact on the flow and results in decreases in fluid velocity for both air and water. Furthermore, the presence of the heat generation parameter is seen to enhance the temperature distribution and this is reflected as an increase in the magnitude of the oscillation dimensionless velocity, whereas in the presence of heat absorption a reversed trend occurs.

The present work presents a theoretical investigation of an MHD mixed convection flow in a vertical microchannel formed by two electrically non-conducting infinite vertical parallel plates. The influence of an induced magnetic field arising due to motion of an electrically conducting fluid is taken into consideration. The governing equations of the motion are a set of simultaneous ordinary differential equations and their exact solutions in dimensionless form have been obtained for the velocity field, the induced magnetic field and the temperature field. The expressions for the induced current density and skin friction have also been obtained. The effects of various non-dimensional parameters such as rarefaction, fluid wall interaction, the Hartmann number and the magnetic Prandtl number on the velocity, the induced magnetic field, the temperature, the induced current density, and skin friction have been presented in a graphical form. It is found that the effect of the Hartmann number and magnetic Prandtl number on the induced current density is found to have a decreasing nature at the central region of the microchannel.
