【 摘 要 】

A steady laminar two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a viscous incompressible radiating fluid over an exponentially stretching sheet, in the presence of transverse magnetic field is studied. The non-linear partial differential equations describing the problem under consideration, are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. The resultant system is solved by applying Runge-Kutta fourth order method along with shooting technique. The flow phenomenon has been characterized by the thermo physical parameters such as magnetic parameter (M), radiation parameter (R) and Eckert number (E). The effects of these parameters on the fluid velocity, temperature, wall skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer coefficient have been computed and the results are presented graphically and discussed quantitatively.
