| Summary: | Studies on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer due to a stretching surface plays important role in many engineering process and industries. It is proved that the rate of heat transfer influenced the quality of the final product in engineering process. This research investigates about MHD flow and heat transfer over an exponentially stretching sheet with radiation effect in porous medium. The governing partial differential equation is transformed into the system of ordinary differential equation by applying similarity transformation. Then, the transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically by using the finite difference scheme known as Keller-box method in MATLAB for some values of parameters. It was found that the local heat transfer rate decrease with the increasing values of permeability parameter, D. |
