Abstract
An accelerating magnetohydrodynamic laminar flow of an electrically conducting fluid under the influence of gravity and in presence of transverse magnetic field is investigated in the paper. Using a cubic polynomial for the velocity profile inside the boundary layer, the momentum integral equation is solved numerically by Runge-Kutta method to determine the boundary layer thickness and the corresponding film thickness is then calculated for the entrance region. The effect of magnetic field on these solutions is shown in graphical form.
