TL;DR: In this article, a numerical analysis for flow and heat transfer in a viscous fluid over a sheet nonlinearly stretched by extending the investigation in two directions is presented, on one side, the effects of thermal radiation are included in the energy equation, and on the other hand, the prescribed wall heat flux case (PHF case) is also analyzed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the steady two-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic flow of an incompressible viscous and electrically conducting fluid over a stretching vertical sheet in its own plane is analyzed.
Abstract: An analysis is made for the steady two-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic flow of an incompressible viscous and electrically conducting fluid over a stretching vertical sheet in its own plane. The stretching velocity, the surface temperature and the transverse magnetic field are assumed to vary in a power-law with the distance from the origin. The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically for some values of the involved parameters, namely the magnetic parameter M, the velocity exponent parameter m, the temperature exponent parameter n and the buoyancy parameter λ, while the Prandtl number Pr is fixed, namely Pr = 1, using a finite difference scheme known as the Keller-box method. Similarity solutions are obtained in the presence of the buoyancy force if n = 2m−1. The features of the flow and heat transfer characteristics for different values of the governing parameters are analyzed and discussed. It is found that both the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number decrease as the magnetic parameter M increases for fixed λ and m. For m = 0.2 (i.e. n = −0.6), although the sheet and the fluid are at different temperatures, there is no local heat transfer at the surface of the sheet except at the singular point of the origin (fixed point).

TL;DR: An investigation for the flow and radiation heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet with velocity slip and temperature jump in porous medium with very good agreement to validate the present results.
Abstract: In this paper, we present an investigation for the flow and radiation heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet with velocity slip and temperature jump in porous medium. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis are taken into account according to Rosseland’s approximation. The governing coupled partial differential equations are non-dimensionalized and solved both numerically and analytically by local similarity method. The effects of involved parameters (velocity slip, temperature jump, thermal radiation, Prandtl number, Lewis number, Brownian motion, thermophoresis) on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically and analyzed. Moreover, the numerical results are compared with the analytical solutions obtained by Homotopy analysis method with very good agreement to validate the present results.
