Abstract : The study focuses on the flow characteristics with geometrical considerations utilizing electrical-conduct Non-Newtonian Fluid. The tubular concentric annulus is the geometry selected for the investigation. The electric-conductive Non-Newtonian Fluid is a character-wise two-constant Bingham model used in this study. The study also utilized geometry, the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect, and the hall current. The employed system had the inner tube spinning and the outer tube stationary. Prandtl's assumptions of boundary layer principles are applied to solve the governing equations using the finite difference method for various fluid flow parameters, the Gauss-Elimination method to compute the results, and the MHD field and geometrical factors with hall current. This paper discusses fluid flow properties such as axial, radial, tangential velocities, and pressure distribution. Further, the mentioned above flow properties impact the heat transfer effect. This research details how flow parameters in the concentric tube flow process affect the development of heat transfer effects in the MHD field and hall current.
