The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of the inclined outer velocity on heat and flow transportation in boundary layer Casson fluid over a stretching sheet. The flow is adopted to have non-orthogonal magnetic field with heat generation in the uniform manner on stretching surface. It has been taken that in both the directions along the x-axis, the sheet is stretched. By applying similarity transformations, the governing equations representing the heat and flow transportation are converted to ordinary differential equations. Runge-Kutta Fehlberg approach was adopted to solve numerically the moulded differential equations with the help of shooting technique. The flow is also governed by the heat source parameter, Casson fluid parameter, magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, aligned angle of magnetic field and the impinging angle parameter. The results revealed that velocity decreases with an increase in Casson fluid parameter, magnetic parameter and aligned angle of magnetic field for the case of outer velocity parameter less than one while velocity increases for the case of outer velocity parameter greater than one because of the inverted boundary layer formation for velocity profile in second case. Also, the fluid temperature increases (for the case of outer velocity parameter less than one) and temperature decreases (for the case of outer velocity parameter greater than one) with an increase in Casson fluid parameter, impinging angle parameter and aligned angle parameter. The results indicate that outer velocity and aligned magnetic field has a significant impact on fluid temperature and velocity. The behaviour of emerging fluid parameters on fluid temperature and velocity are depicted graphically and their effect on local Nusselt number (〖Nu〗_x ) and skin friction coefficient (C_f ) are represented by tables. The finding of this study may serve as to control the rate of heat transportation and fluid velocity in many manufacturing processes and industrial applications to make the desired quality of final product. Acceptance of the extant technique used in current study is correlated with the existing outcomes in the literature.
