The practice of flowing effort is participating in various industries especially in nutrition productions all around the world. These fluids practices are utilized extensively in nutrition handling productions by making use of sticky liquids to produce valuable food manufactured goods in bulk. Nevertheless, such productions ought to guarantee that involved equipment such as pipelines are maintained clean as well as are cleared out for the efficient movement of fluids. The nonsimilar characteristics of involuntary convection from circular cylinder stretching in the axial direction subjected to an external flow of Sisko fluid characterized by the freely growing boundary layers (BL) are presented in this research. A circular cylinder is submerged in a stationary fluid. The axial stretching of the cylinder causes external fluid flow. The magnetic force of strength ″B0″ is enforced in the transverse direction. Because of the fluid's high viscosity, frictional heating due to viscous dissipation is quite significant. The flow is three dimensional but with no circumferential variations. The governing equations for axisymmetric flow that include the mass balance, x-momentum, and heat equation are modeled through conservation laws. The dimensionless system is developed by employing appropriate nonsimilar transformations. The numerical analyses are presented by adapting local nonsimilarity via finite-difference (FDM)-based MATLAB algorithm bvp4c. The characteristics of dimensionless numbers are determined by graphs that are plotted on momentum and heat equations. The nonsimilar simulations have been compared with the existing local similar solutions. Fluid velocity is increased as the material and curvature parameters are increased, resulting in improved heat transfer. The deviation in skin friction and local Nusselt number against the various dimensionless numbers is also analyzed.
