Similarity Solution of Heat and Mass Transfer Flow over an Inclined Stretching Sheet with Viscous Dissipation and Constant Heat Flux in Presence of Magnetic Field

Abstract

The present analysis of this paper is to examine the similarity solution of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) free convection heat and mass transfer flow of an incompressible, electrically conducting and viscous fluid over an inclined stretching sheet with viscous dissipation and constant heat flux. So the present work is focused of the impact of the flow parameters on the velocity, temperature, and concentration are computed, discussed and have been graphically represented in figures and also the shearing stress, and rate of concentration shown in table 1 for various values of different parameters. The results presented graphically illustrate that velocity field decrease due to increasing of magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, Grashof number, and Eckert number whereas negligible increasing effects for Soret number, Schmidt number and noticeable increasing effect for angle of inclination but there is no effect for modified Grashof number. The temperature field decreases up to certain interval then increases in the presence of Magnetic parameter and reverse trend arise for Prandtl number but the temperature field increases for the remaining entering parameters. It is interesting to note that in a certain interval of η, the concentration profile is decreased and then increased but reverse trend arises in the case of Prandtl number and angle of inclination. By considering the hot plate the numerical results for the skin friction and the local Sherwood number are compared with the results reported by the other author when the magnetic field and modified Grashof number are absent. The present results in this paper are in good agreement with the work of the previous author.
