Effect of Inclined Magnetic Field and Heat Transfer in a Walter’s B Fluid over a Stretching Sheet with Elastic Deformation

This article deals with the heat transfer in a Walter’s liquid B fluid through a stretching sheet subject to elastic deformation. We have incorporated the combined effects of aligned magnetic field and viscous dissipation. The effect of viscous dissipation regulating the heat transfer is considered. In addition, prescribed power law surface temperature and prescribed power law surface heat flux boundary conditions are introduced. The transformed non-linear coupled governing equations are solved analytically using hyper geometric function. The effects of various embedded pertinent parameters on velocity and temperature profiles are well discussed with the aid of appropriate graphs and tables. Our results are verified with previously published results of some noteworthy researchers. It is found that the augmenting aligned magnetic field strength reduces the flow velocity and the related momentum boundary layer thickness.
