In this paper the steady three-dimensional stagnation-point flow of an incompressible, homogeneous, electrically conducting Newtonian fluid over a flat plate is investigated numerically. The fluid is permeated by a uniform external magnetic field H0. The effects of the magnetic field on the velocity profiles are presented graphically and discussed. This paper completes the analysis concerning t...

‎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...

An analysis is carried out to study the steady two-dimensional stagnation-point flow of a nanofluid over a stretching/shrinking sheet in its own plane. The stretching/shrinking velocity and the ambient fluid velocity are assumed to vary linearly with the distance from the stagnation point. The similarity equations are solved numerically for three types of nanoparticles, namely copper, alumina, ...

[1] Magnetic reconnection with asymmetry in the outflow direction occurs in the Earth’s magnetotail, coronal mass ejections, flux cancellation events, astrophysical disks, spheromak merging experiments, and elsewhere in nature and the laboratory. A control volume analysis is performed for the case of steady antiparallel magnetic reconnection with asymmetric downstream pressure to derive scaling...

Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) stagnation point flow and heat transfer of a Williamson fluid in the direction of an exponentially stretching sheet embedded in a thermally stratified medium subject to suction present in this examination. Suitable transformations are used to convert the partial differential equations corresponding to the momentum and energy equations into highly nonlinear ordinary di...

The mathematical model for the incompressible two-dimensional stagnation flow of a Maxwell fluid towards a shrinking sheet is proposed. The developed equations are used to discuss the problem of being two dimensional in the region of stagnation point over a shrinking sheet. The nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations by firsttaking boundary-la...
