The present study is a theoretical study of three-dimensional rotating ferrofluid flow on stretching sheet. Flow is influenced by a magnetic dipole in presence of viscous dissipation. Formulation of Navier stoke equations with ferromagnetic particle’s interaction is carried out. By applying dimensional analysis coupled differential equations are reduced to an ordinary system of equations. Finite difference approach is applied to solve the obtained system of equations. Effects of viscous dissipation and the magnetic dipole on flow and temperature of fluid are illustrated graphically and in tabular form. It is proved that temperature and skin friction is a decreasing function of Eckert number. Ferromagnetic hydrodynamic interaction parameter results in reducing both of velocities (axial and transverse), heat flux, and increasing skin friction.
