摘要
This paper employs a computational iterative approach known as the spectral local linearization method (SLLM) to analyze the Hall effect on MHD flow and heat transfer over an unsteady stretching permeable surface in the presence of thermal radiation and heat source/sink. To demonstrate the reliability of our proposed method, we made comparison with the Matlab bvp4c routine technique, and an excellent agreement was observed. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by using suitable similarity transformations. The results are obtained for velocity, temperature, skin friction and the Nusselt number.
