摘要
In this paper magnetoconvective heat and mass transfer characteristics of a two-dimensional steady flow of a nanofluid over a non-linear stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation,Ohmic heating and viscous dissipation have been investigated numerically.The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of the Brownian motion and the presence of nanopanicles in the base fluid.The governing equations are transformed into a system of nonlinear oidinary differential equations by using similarity transformation.The numerical solutions are obtained by using fifth order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method with shooting technique.The non-dimensional parameters on velocity,temperature and concentration profiles and also on local Nusselt number and Sherwood number are discussed.The results indicate that the local skin friction coefficient decreases as the value of the magnetic parameter increases whereas the Nusselt number and Sherwood number increase as the values of the Brownian motion parameter and magnetic parameter increase.
