Abstract

The present paper studies on the laminar two-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an incompressible viscous fluid with thermal radiation in existence of Porous medium and Magnetic field over an linearly stretching sheet is investigated numerically. The governing boundary layer equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by a similarity transformation. The malformed equations are solved numerically using an embedded finite difference scheme known as the Keller-box method. The numerical solutions for the wall skin friction coefficient, the heat transfer coefficient, and the velocity and temperature profiles are evaluated, analyzed and discussed.
