During thermal radiation treatments, heat therapies, and examination procedures like scans and X-rays, the cylindrical blood vessels may get stretched; meanwhile, the blood flow through those blood vessels may get affected due to temperature variations around them. To overcome this issue, this work was framed to explore the impact of heat transmission in a Carreau fluid flow (CFF) through a stretching cylinder in terms of the nonlinear stretching rate and irregular heat source/sink. Temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and thermal radiation are taken into consideration in this study. To tranform complicated partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, appropriate similarity variables are used. For a limited set of instances, the derived series solutions are compared to previously published results. For linear and nonlinear stretching rates, graphs and tables are used to examine the influence of an irregular heat source/sink on fluid movement and heat transfer. The research outcomes demonstrate that the heat source and nonlinear stretching rate cause a disruption in the temperature distribution in the fluid region, which can alter the blood flow through the vessels. In all conditions except for the heat in an internal heat sink, the nonlinear stretching situation improves the velocity and heat profile. Furthermore, with the increase in the values of the Weissenberg number, the temperature profile shows opposing features in a shear-thickening fluid and shear-thinning fluid. For the former n > 1, the blood fluidity gets affected, restricting the free movement of blood. For the latter, n < 1, the phenomenon is reversed. Other industrial applications of this work are wire coating, plastic coverings, paper fabrication, fiber whirling, etc. In all of those processes, the fluid flow is manipulated by thermal conditions.
