Heat Transfer in MHD Flow over A Stretching Sheet with Velocity and Thermal Slip Condition

Abstract

The present work is concerned with the effects of surface slip conditions and thermal on an electrically conducting fluid over a non-isothermal stretching surface in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field. Similarity transformation is used to transform the partial differential equations describing the problem into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations which is solved analytically. The effects of various parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles as well as on the local skin-friction and the local Nusselt number are discussed in detail and displayed through graphs.
