Abstract
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) conjugate free convection boundary layer solution for the heat transfer of an electrically conducting fluid from a horizontal circular cylinder has been studied. The heat due to viscous dissipation and internal heat generation are also included into the energy equation. The developed governing equations and the associated boundary conditions are transferred to dimensionless forms and then solved numerically using the implicit finite difference method. Numerical results for the magnetic parameter, conjugate conduction parameter, Prandtl number, viscous dissipation parameter and heat generation parameter are given for the velocity profiles, temperature distributions, coefficient of skin friction and heat transfer rate.
