MHD Heat and Mass Transfer Flow Over a Stretching Wedge with Convective Boundary Condition and Thermophoresis

In this study the unsteady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a stretching wedge under the influence of a transverse magnetic field, viscous dissipation, and wall slip is investigated. The governing partial differential equations of the flow are solved numerically. The point of flow separat...

Description
Summary:In this study the unsteady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a stretching wedge under the influence of a transverse magnetic field, viscous dissipation, and wall slip is investigated. The governing partial differential equations of the flow are solved numerically. The point of flow separation is observed to occur at small times and for smaller values of wedge angle. The temperature is found to be an increasing function of Eckert and Biot numbers and a decreasing function of wedge angle.
