Thermal radiative MHD stagnation point slip flow and heat transfer due to a stretching sheet

Abstract

In this paper, we discussed the two dimensional boundary layer flow of an MHD incompressible fluid and heat transfer analysis with thermal radiation in the stagnation point towards a non-linearly moving flat plate in presence of velocity and temperature slip. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations using suitable similarity transformations and then solved numerically by using inbuilt ODE45 code from MATLAB software. The results are analyzed for the effects of various physical parameters on flow and heat transfer phenomena. The increase in moving parameter increases the velocity and temperature of the fluid enhance with increase in temperature slip parameter. We have calculated the numerical values of missing boundary conditions of momentum and energy differential equations which shows a very good agreement with earlier works in some limiting cases. © 2018 by American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.
