Hydromagnetic flow and heat transfer adjacent to a stretching vertical sheet with prescribed surface heat flux
The similarity solution for the problem of mixed convection boundary layer flow adjacent to a stretching vertical sheet in an incompressible electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is presented. It is assumed that the sheet is stretched with a power-law velo...

| description | The similarity solution for the problem of
mixed convection boundary layer flow adjacent to a
stretching vertical sheet in an incompressible electrically
conducting fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic
field is presented. It is assumed that the sheet is stretched
with a power-law velocity and is subjected to a variable
surface heat flux. The governing partial differential equa�tions are first transformed into a system of non-linear
ordinary differential equations, before being solved
numerically by the Keller-box method. The numerical
results obtained are then compared with previously repor�ted cases available in the literature as well as the series
solution for certain values of parameters, to support their
validity. The effects of the governing parameters on the
flow field and heat transfer characteristics are obtained and
discussed. |
