چکیده

Non-isothermal stagnation-point flow with consideration of thermal radiation is studied numerically. A set of partial differential equations that governing the fluid flow and energy is converted into a set of ordinary differential equations which is solved by Runge-Kutta method with shooting algorithm. Dimensionless wall temperature gradient and temperature boundary layer thickness for different combinaton of values of Prandtl number Pr and radiation parameter NR are presented graphically. Analyses of results show that the presence of thermal radiation in the stagnation-point flow is to increase the temperature boundary layer thickness and decrease the dimensionless wall temperature gradient. Keywords—Stagnation-point flow, Similarity solution, Thermal radiation.

Mhd Heat and Mass Transfer Free Convection Flow Near the Lower Stagnation Point of an Isothermal Cylinder Imbedded in Porous Domain with the Presence of Radiation

Heat and mass transfer characteristics and the flow behavior on MHD flow near the lower stagnation point of a porous isothermal horizontal circular cylinder have been studied. The equations of conservation of mass, momentum, energy and concentration which govern the case study of heat and mass transfer flow have been obtained. These equations have been transformed into a system of non-dimension...
