On Series Solutions for MHD Plane and Axisymmetric Flow Near a Stagnation Point

الملخص EN

This investigation presents a mathematical model describing the momentum, heat and mass transfer characteristics of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heat generating/absorbing fluid near a stagnation point of an isothermal two-dimensional body of an axisymmetric body.

The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of a uniform magnetic field.

The series solution is obtained for the resulting coupled nonlinear differential equation.

Homotopy analysis method (HAM) is utilized in obtaining the solution.

Numerical values of the skin friction coefficient and the wall heat transfer coefficient are also computed.
