Increasing population around the globe due to promotion of industries has created severe problems for human beings like shortage of existing fossil fuels, energy crisis, climate change which are major hurdles for human survival on the planet. To solve all these problems, researchers recommended two appropriate solutions, one of them is to promote thermal energy which is environmentally friendly source of energy and other solution is promotion of ferro-fluid usage as an effective medium for transmission of heat. In recent study, we considered the impacts of thermal energy along with magnetic effects and compute its results. This work is done by using appropriate similarity variables to obtain the system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) from set of partial differential equations (PDEs). We solved the resultant ODEs numerically by means of a famous numerical method termed as bvp4c. Here, effects of Weissenberg parameter, power law index, Curie temperature and radiation parameter are determined for velocity and temperature profiles. Furthermore, graphical representations of velocity as well as thermal gradients are computed. The effects of various parameters on Nusselt number are deliberated and expressed in tabular form. Velocity of magnetized cross ferro-fluid dwindles for β and n. Moreover, it is detected that temperature of ferro-fluid deteriorates for Pr and ε. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
