Title : Mass Transfer Effects On Nonlinear Mhd Boundary Layer Flow Of Liquid Metal Over A Porous Nonlinearly Stretching Surface Through Porous Medium With Nonlinear Radiation

Author Name : Mohamed Ibrahim

Synopsis :

The paper investigates the nonlinear radiation effects on two-dimensional, steady MHD laminar boundary layer flow with heat and mass transfer characteristic of an incompressible, viscous, electrically conducting fluid over a nonlinearly stretching surface through a porous medium. The liquid metal is assumed to be gray, emitting, and absorbing, but nonscattering medium. The basic equations governing the flow are in the form of partial differential equations and have been reduced to a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations by applying suitable similarity transformations. The problem is tackled numerically using shooting techniques with fourth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme. Pertinent results with respect to embedded parameters are displayed graphically for the velocity, temperature, concentration, skin-friction coefficient, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer profiles and were discussed quantitatively.
