In this paper, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an incompressible Iron (II, III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4 )-ethylene glycol ((CH 2 OH) 2 ) nanoparticle on micropolar fluid with homogeneously suspended dust particles over a stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and Joule heating are investigated. After transforming the partial differential equations (PDEs) governing the problem into the ordinary differential equa- tions (ODEs), Runge–Kutta Fehlberg fourth fifth order numerical method is applied. The main criterion of this paper is to study the effects of different parameters and dimensionless numbers on velocity and temperature dis- tribution in two phases of fluid and dust for two prescribed surface temperature (PST) and prescribed heat flux (PHF) cases. Velocity reduction in both fluid and dust phases is due to the Lorentz force against flow by increasing Hartman number, enhancement of temperature and thickness of thermal boundary layer are due to the increase of radiation parameter and Eckert number for both PST and PHF cases are the most important results. Also, in the final section of this paper, the effect of changes in the value of different parameters on skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number in (PST and PHF PHF) have been discussed. These results indicated increasing the Hartman parameter (Ha) would cause an increase skin friction coefficient, also increasing the Eckert number would cause an increase local Nusselt number in PST case and reverse effect in PHF case.
