A Study Of MHD Flow Of Casson Fluid Over An Exponentially Stretching Sheet With Heat Transfer.
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this paper, the problem of steady laminar two-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of MHD flow of Casson fluid with a presence of thermal radiation over an exponentially stretching sheet is investigated numerically. The governing boundary layer equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. The transformed equations are then solved numerically using Keller-box method. Numerical results are obtained for the velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number. The influence of the various governing parameters viz. Casson parameter, magnetic parameter, porosity parameter and Prandtl number on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the Casson fluid is plotted graphically and discussed in detail.
