Abstract This paper aims at the heat transfer
phenomenon and the effect of magnetic field on the
second-grade fluid in a vertical oscillating cylinder. By
applying a perpendicular magnetic field, the fluid gets
magnetized. Fractional MHD flow was modeled with
Caputo-Fabrizio non-integer derivative approach. Exact
solution of the governing equations was obtained by
Laplace and finite Hankel transforms. Mathematical
computations and graphical plots were used to investigate
the quantitative effects of emerging dimensionless physical
parameters on the second-grade fluid flow, such as
magnetic field and Prandtl number.

1. Introduction
Nowadays BFD (biomagnetic fluid dynamics) and MHD
(magneto hydrodynamics) are gaining significant attention
in fractional-order electromagnetism, bio-engineering and
neurons modeling in biology. Heat transfer has a major
impact on the non-Newtonian flow problems in industry
and engineering.
In the analytical study of Nehad and Ilyas [1], fractional
parameter enhances the fluid velocity in the vertical
oscillating plate. Das et al [2] applied Runge-Kutta sixth
order method to the stretching heat model. The results
conclude that thermal radiation significantly increases the
boundary layer velocity and temperature. Rehman et al. [3]
used a homotopy analysis method to find the Erying Powell
fluid stagnation point inside the vertical cylinder. Keller
box scheme was employed by Prasad et al. [4] to
numerically simulate the incompressible second-grade
fluid. Numerical results show that the heat transfer rate and
velocity gradient decelerates with streamwise coordinate.
Alao et al. [5] solved the viscous dissipation model by
spectral relaxation method. It was shown that thermal
radiation rise resulted in the cooling plate. Fourth-grade
thin-film flow was analytically studied by using Adomian
decomposition method and Homotopy asymptotic method
by Gul et al. [6]. Graphical results were compared and
found in good agreement with both of the methods.
Visco-elastic fluid flow inside the circular cylinder was
investigated by Choudhury and Deka [7]. Meksyn
application model of steepest descent method was applied,
where it was found that Nusselt number and visco-elastic
absolute value reduced the shearing stress. Hayat et al. [8]
discussed the heat absorption and heterogeneous reactions
due to a rotating disk for the second-grade fluid.
Appropriate initial guesses were made to assure the
solution convergence. Computed results depicted that
visco-elastic parameter and Schmidt number were the
increasing functions of concentration profile. Shear stress
and velocity profile were evaluated by using the fractional
derivative approach in Raza et al. [9] model. The hybrid
technique involves semi-analytical fractional-order
solutions condensed to the ordinary form. Non-Fourier heat
flux and thermal conductivity for temperature-dependent
fluid were numerically investigated by Hayat et al. [10].
HAM solution showed that the velocity profile accelerated
with visco-elastic and curvature parameter. Moreover,
temperature decayed with increasing thermal stratification
and Prandtl number. Blood and fluid flow problems
without singularity in the fractional domain were
analytically studied by Uddin et al. [11], [12], [13]& [14].
