Magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow and heat transfer over a shrinking sheet under the influence of thermal slip

摘要

We study the heat transfer of a Magneto Hydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of a Newtonian fluid over a pervious shrinking sheet under the influence of thermal slip. The flow allows electric current to pass through. The governing PDEs are transformed into self-similar ODEs via Lie group analysis. We study the variations in the dimensionless quantities like velocity and temperature of the flow in terms of the different parameters involved in the problem. We discuss the thickness of the boundary layers under the influence of various parameters involved in the flow. Numerical simulations are carried out to explain and support the results obtained.
