Abstract
Exact solutions are obtained for the heat transfer in an electrically conducting fluid past a stretching sheet subjected to the thermal boundary with either a prescribed temperature or a prescribed heat flux in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The solutions for the heat transfer characteristics are evaluated numerically for different parameters, such as the magnetic parameterN, the Prandtl numberPr, the surface temperature indexs, and the surface heat flux indexd. It is observed that for the prescribed surface temperature case the fluid temperature increases due to the existance of the magnetic field, and decreases as the Prandtl number or the surface temperature index increases; for the prescribed surface heat flux case, the surface temperature decreases as the Prandtl number of the surface heat flux index increases, and the magnetic parameter decreases. In addition, varying the prescribed surface temperature indexs affects the mechanism of heat transfer.
