Effects Of Some Thermo-Physical Properties On Force Convective Stagnation Point On A Stretching Sheet With Convective Boundary Conditions In The Presence Of Thermal Radiation And Magnetic Field

Abstract

Of concern in this paper is an investigation of force convective stagnation point on a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions in the presence of thermal radiation and uniform magnetic field. Rosseland approximation is used to model the radiative heat transfer. The nonlinear partial differential equations arising from the flow modeling were transformed by similarity transformation. The resulting coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations were then solved numerically by employing the Adaptive Runge-Kutta together with shooting technique. Finally the effects of the pertinent thermo-physical parameters are presented in graphs and tables.
