Study of Thermophoresis on the MHD Flow Due to an Exponentially Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Viscous Dissipation

摘要

The influence of thermophoresis and viscous dissipation on the unsteady boundary layer flow of an incompressible, viscous electrically conducting fluid over a sheet that stretches exponentially in the presence of temperature dependent heat source with chemical reaction is analysed. It is observed that the suction, magnetic field parameter, wall slip parameter, thermophoresis decelerate the velocity while an opposite trend is noted with blowing. Eckert number and heat source parameter enhance the rate of heat transfer. The thermophoresis has a reducing influence on the species concentration.
