Melting Heat Transfer in the Stagnation-point Flow of Third Grade Fluid past a Stretching Sheet with Viscous Dissipation
نویسندگان
چکیده
An analysis has been carried out for the characteristics of melting heat transfer in the boundary layer flow of third grade fluid in a region of stagnation point past a stretching sheet. The relevant partial differential equations are reduced into ordinary differential system by suitable transformations. The series solutions are developed by homotopy analysis method. It is revealed that an increase in the melting parameter decreases the velocity and the temperature. An increase in the third grade parameter f increases the velocity and the boundary layer thickness. The present results are also compared with the previous studies.

Stagnation-point flow of a viscous fluid towards a stretching surface with variable thickness and thermal radiation
In the present analysis, we study the boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid near the two-dimensional stagnation-point flow over a stretching surface. The effects of variable thickness and radiation are also taken into account and assumed that the sheet is non-flat. Using suitable transformations, the governing partial differential equations are first converted to ordin...

This article presents the heat and mass transfer characteristics of unsteady MHD flow of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting micropolar fluid in the presence of viscous dissipation and radiation over a porous stretching sheet with chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying suitable si...

متن کاملMHD Three-Dimensional Stagnation-Point Flow and Heat Transfer of a Nanofluid over a Stretching Sheet
In this study, the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow in a nanofluid was investigated. The Navier–Stokes equations were reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transform. The similarity equations were solved for three types of nanoparticles: copper, alumina and titania with water as the base fluid, to inve...
