The radiation and viscous dissipation effects on a steady two-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamics
free convection flow along a stretching sheet with heat generation is analyzed. The non-linear partial differential
equations, governing the flow field under consideration, have been transformed by a similarity transformation
into a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically by applying
Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique together with sixth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme.
Resulting non-dimensional velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are then presented graphically for
different values of the parameters of physical and engineering interest. |
