Combined effects of heat and mass transfer with thermal radiation, convection and MHD boundary layer flow over a stretching surface

Abstract

The magneto hydrodynamic flow over a stretching surface with convective heat and mass transfer, chemical reaction and radiation has been studied. The system of non-linear differential equations has been obtained and transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations with the help of
similarity transformation for the governing flow. This set of ODEs has been solved and results have carried out for different values of the various physical parameters involved in the problem. The results showing the effect of various physical parameters on velocity temperature and concentration profiles
have been obtained and presented graphically. The velocity decreases with increasing effect of magnetic parameter while with the increase in Grashof number for heat and mass transfer, the velocity increases. The mass and momentum transport in laminar boundary layer on moving, stationary and
linearly stretching surface has important applications in polymer industry and electrochemistry
