Heat Transfer In Mhd Viscoelastic Boundary Layer Flow Over Astretching Sheet With Non-uniform Heat Source/sink

摘要

This paper presents the study of momentum and heat transfer characteristics in a hydro-magnetic flow of viscoelastic liquid over a stretching sheet with non-uniform heat source, where the flow is generated due to a linear stretching of the sheet and influenced by uniform magnetic field applied vertically. Here an analysis has been carried out to study the effect of rnagnetic field on the visco-elastic liquid flow and heat transfer over a stretching sheet with non-uniform heat source. The non-linear boundary layer equation for momentum is converted into ordinary differential equation by means of similarity transformation and is solved exactly. Heat transfer differential equation is also solved analytically. The effect of magnetic field on velocity. skin friction and temperature profiles are presented graphically and discussed.
