The heat transfer and entropy generation characteristics of the magnetohydrodynamic Casson fluid flow through an inclined microchannel with convective boundary conditions are analyzed. Further, the effects of the viscous forces, Joule heating, heat source/sink, and radiation on the flow are taken in...
