“…2 Moreover, due to the increasing applications of the magnetic field in industrial processes, research on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convection heat and mass transfer flows in porous media has gained immense interest from scientists and researchers across the globe. Some of the important investigations in this direction are due to Jha, 3 Cheng, 4 Postelnicu, 5 Chamkha et al, 6 Hussanan et al, 7 Seth et al, 8 Seth and Sarkar, 9 Khan et al, 10 Ali et al, 11 Sarkar and Seth, 12 Mohamad et al, 13 Seth et al, 14,15 Bhatti et al, [16][17][18] and Rashidi et al 19,20 In addition, an increasing interest for microchannel fluid mechanics and heat exchange has ascended of late due to plausible cooling applications in space frameworks, material processing, manufacturing activities, and in high power-density chips in supercomputers and different electronics. As this area keeps on developing, it turns out to be progressively essential to comprehend the components and major contrasts required with fluid mechanics and heat transfer in microchannels (Shen 21 ).…”
