In this paper, we analyzed the biomagnetic fluid flow and heat transfer in a nanofluid over a stretching sheet in the presence of magnetic dipole. The effects of velocity slip are considered in this study. Three different types of nanofluids, namely the Copper-blood, the Gold-blood and titanium dioxide-blood are considered. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations using suitable transformation. Numerical solutions of these equations are obtained by using bvp4c function technique in MATLAB software. Inside the boundary layer, the variations of velocity, temperature as well as skin friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer at the sheet for various values of the appearing parameter, namely the ferromagnetic parameter, Prandtl number, volume friction, slip parameter are presented graphically and discussed in detail. The obtained results show that Gold has higher rate of heat transfer compared to Copper and Titanium dioxide. A good agreement is found between the present numerical results and the available results in the literature in some specific cases.
