Description
Summary:This study is conducted to analyze the effects of thermal radiation and slip effects on magnetohydrodynamic stagnation point flow over a shrinking sheet. The velocity, temperature, and nanoparticles concentration profiles are analyzed with respect to the involved parameters such as Lewis number, magnetic parameter, radiation parameter, Brownian motion, thermophoresis parameter, velocity and thermal slip parameters. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equation by a similarity transformation. Then, the numerical solutions are solved by bvp4c in Matlab software. The numerical result obtained reveal that the velocity increases with the increase in stagnation parameter and velocity slip parameter. The temperature profile increases with the increase in radiation parameter while increasing velocity slip parameter reduce the temperature.
