The steady boundary layer magnetohydrodynamic stagnation- point flow past a stretching sheet through porous media in the presence of heat source /sink has been studied. Dissipative effects such as viscous, Joule and Darcy dissipation are also considered in the present study. The governing nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are modified into self-similar ordinary differential equations by appropriate similarity transformations and then the transmuted equations are numerically solved by Runge-Kutta fourth order method. Particular importance of pertinent physical parameters of interest which cover velocity ratio parameter, magnetic parameter, porous matrix, Prandtl number, Eckert number, temperature index parameter and heat source parameter. The outcomes acquired for velocity, temperature and skin friction has been displayed in tables and graphs. For the verification of the present outcomes with the earlier published results in a particular case is also presented and it is found that the present result is in good agreement.

The effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on MHD heat transfer flow of viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid near stagnation point flow on non-conducting stretching sheet in presence of uniform transfer magnetic field with heat source/sink and viscous dissipation has been analyzed. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations using a special form of Lie group transformations and then solved using Fourth order Runge-Kutta Method. Effects of different physical parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are analyzed. Variations of different parameters on skin fiction coefficient-f??(0) and temperature gradient ???(0) are presented in tabular form.

Two-dimensional MHD mixed convection boundary layer flow of heat and mass transfer stagnation-point flow of a non-Newtonian power-law nanofluid towards a stretching surface in the presence of thermal radiation and heat source/sink is investigated numerically. The non-Newtonian nanofluid model incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The basic transport equations are made dimensionless first and the complete nonlinear differential equations with associated boundary conditions are solved numerically by finite element method (FEM). The numerical calculations for velocity, temperature, and nanoparticles volume fraction profiles for different values of the physical parameters to display the interesting aspects of the solutions are presented graphically and discussed. The skin friction coefficient, the local Nusslet number and the Sherwood number are exhibited and examined. Our results are compatible with the existing results for a special case.

In this study we numerically examine the mixed convection stagnation-point flow of a nanofluid over a vertical stretching/shrinking sheet in the presence of suction, thermal radiation and a heat source/sink. Three distinct types of nanoparticles, copper (Cu), alumina (Al2O3) and titania (TiO2), were investigated with water as the base fluid. The governing partial differential equations were converted into ordinary differential equations with the aid of similarity transformations and solved numerically by utilizing the bvp4c programme in MATLAB. Dual (upper and lower branch) solutions were determined within a particular range of the mixed convection parameters in both the opposing and assisting flow regions and a stability analysis was carried out to identify which solutions were stable. Accordingly, solutions were gained for the reduced skin friction coefficients, the reduced local Nusselt number, along with the velocity and temperature profiles for several values of the parameters, which consists of the mixed convection parameter, the solid volume fraction of nanoparticles, the thermal radiation parameter, the heat source/sink parameter, the suction parameter and the stretching/shrinking parameter. Furthermore, the solutions were presented in graphs and discussed in detail.

In this analysis, effects of viscous dissipation and thermal radiation on an electrically conducting boundary layer flow, heat and mass transfer of a fluid through a porous medium over a stretching sheet in the presence of heat source/sink is considered. The symmetry groups admitted by the corresponding boundary value problem are obtained by using symmetric transformations. These transformations are used to convert the partial differential equations of the governing equations into self-similar non-linear ordinary differential equations. These transformed ODEs are solved by employing Runge-Kutta fourth order with shooting method. Numerical results obtained for different thermo-physical parameters characterizes the flow phenomena are drawn graphically and effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are discussed. Numerical computation for skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also obtained and presented in Tables.

This research peruses the characteristics of nanoparticles on stagnation point flow of a generalized Newtonian Carreau fluid past a nonlinear stretching sheet with nonlinear thermal radiation. The process of mass transfer is modeled using activation energy and binary chemical reaction along with the Brownian motion and thermophoresis. For energy activation a modified Arrhenius function is invoked. With regard to the solution of the governing differential equations, suitable transformation variables are used to obtain the system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations before being numerically solved using the shooting method. Graphical results are shown in order to scrutinize the behavior of pertinent parameters on velocity, temperature profiles, and concentration of nanoparticle. Also, the behavior of fluid flow is investigated through the coefficient of the skin friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and streamlines. Results showed that the velocity ratio parameter serves to increase the velocity of fluid and reduces the temperature distribution and nanoparticle concentration. The results were compared with the available studies and were found to be in excellent agreement.

An attempt has been made to study the heat and mass transfer effect in a boundary layer MHD flow of an electrically conducting viscous fluid subject to transverse magnetic field on an exponentially stretching sheet through porous medium. The effect of thermal radiation and heat source/sink has also been discussed in this paper. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta method with a shooting technique. Graphical results are displayed for nondimensional velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles while numerical values of the skin friction local Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in tabular form for various values of parameters controlling the flow system.
