Unsteady MHD Flow of non-Newtonian Fluid through Past Vertical Stretching Sheet
Dr. P. Sulochana
Abstract: In this paper, we have considered the MHD flow of an electrically conducting non-Newtonian fluid past a vertical stretching sheet. Convective boundary conditions, thermophoresis and thermal radiation are taken into account. The governing equations reduced into a dimensionless form making use of similarity transformations. The confined similarity equations are originated and solved using shooting method together with RungeKutta sixth order system. The flow characteristics are discussed through graphs and tables. The investigation walk around that, the fluid velocity and temperature in the boundary layer region get higher significantly for increasing the values of thermal radiation parameter. The Nusselt number enhances with increasing the values of the surface convection parameter.
