The aim of this work is to obtain exact analytical solution to the two dimensional laminar compressible boundary layer flow with an adverse pressure gradient in the presence of heat and mass transfer with MHD. The method applied is homotopy analysis method. It is shown that this solution agrees very well with numerical solution which is obtained by Runge-Kutta Merson method and results are shown graphically for different magnetic parameters.

AbstractA non-linear analysis has been made to study the unsteady hydromagnetic boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a micropolar fluid over a stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium. The effects of thermal radiation in the boundary layer flow over a stretching sheet have also been investigated. The system of governing partial differential equations in the boundary layer have reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations using a suitable similarity transformation. The resulting non-linear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using an implicit finite difference scheme. The numerical results concern with the axial velocity, micro-rotation component and temperature profiles as well as local skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer at the sheet. The study reveals that the unsteady parameter S has an increasing effect on the flow and heat transfer characteristics.
