Abstract

In this paper, the problem of a steady laminar three-dimensional stagnation point boundary layer flow (Homann stagnation flow) on a permeable moving surface with anisotropic slip in a viscous fluid is investigated. A similarity transformation reduces the governing system of nonlinear partial differential equations into the ordinary (similarity) differential equations. The resulting equations are then solved numerically by using the bvp4c function in Matlab. The effects of surface mass transfer parameter, slip parameter and moving parameter on the fluid flow characteristics are presented in the forms of tables and figures and are discussed in detail. Finally, it is concluded from the stability analysis that the first (upper branch) solution is stable and physically realizable, while the second (lower branch) solution is not stable.
