摘要
Thermodiffusion effects on stagnation point flow of a nanofluid towards a stretching surface with applied magnetic field is presented. Similarity transforms are applied to reduce the equations that govern the flow to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method is applied to solve the system. Results are compared with existing solutions that are special cases to our problem. Concrete graphical analysis is carried out to study the effects of different emerging parameters such as stretching ratio A, magnetic influence parameter M, Prandtl number Pr, Lewis number Le, Brownian motion parameter Nb, therm.ophoresis parameter Nt, nanofluid Lewis number Let, modified Dufour parameter Nd and Dufour solutal number Ld coupled with comprehensive discussions. Numerical effects of local Nusselt number, local Sherwood number and nanofluid Sherwood number are also discussed. (C) 2014 National Laboratory for Aeronautics and Astronautics.
