Mhd Stagnation Point Flow of a Jeffrey Fluid Over a Stretching/Shrinking Sheet through Porous Medium

Abstract

In this analysis the MHD stagnation point flow of Jeffrey fluid over a stretching/shrinking sheet through porous medium is studied. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equation using the similarity transformations and are solved shooting technique. The effects of governing parameters on the velocity, the temperature and the concentration while the skin friction coefficients, the rate of heat transfer are studied graphically.
