Mixed Convective Conditions on Natural Convection of MHD Blasius and Sakiadis Flows with Variable Properties and Nonlinear Chemical Reaction

An unsteady two-dimensional boundar y layer slip flow of a viscous incompressible fluid mo(ing plate in a quiescent fluid (Sakiadis flow and the flow-induced ON er a stationary flat plate by a unifo free stream (Blasius flowinvestigated simultaneously, from a numerical point of view. The ariable the al conductivity iscosity ratio parameter and nonlinear chemical reaction are used in the governing equations. Similarity equations of the governing transport equations are corn erted into an ordinary differential equation. The transformed equations are solved numerically using the Runge-Kutta method via the shooting technique. Sample results for the dimensionless veloci temperature,. and concentration distributions are studied through graphically. Moreover. friction factor heat, and mass transfer rates have been discussed in detail. The chemical reaction parameter decelerates the friction factor and heat transfer rates for the Sakiadis and Blasius flow cases and enhances in mass transfer rate in both cases. The rate of mass transfer is higher in Blasius flow compared with Sakiadis flow. The present results of the heat transfer rate are compared with the published results are found to be in good agreement.
