Numerical solution of free stream MHD flow with the effect of velocity slip condition from an inclined porous plate

Abstract

This article is concerned with Magnetohydrodynamic forced convective boundary layer flow past an inclined plate in a porous medium. Additionally, the effect of heat generation and velocity parameters are considered. The velocity slip and thermal slip effects on velocity and temperature profiles are taken into the account to address the phenomenon of heat transfer. The fundamental system of partial differential equations with necessary boundary conditions are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The reduced ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by the Finite difference method. It is observed that the results are significantly influenced by the various dimensionless parameters such as magnetic parameter, grashof number, Heat generation parameter, Prandtl number, velocity slip parameter. The impact of pertinent physical quantities on velocity and temperature profile is presented through graphs and tables. The results depicted that Magnetic parameter and permeability parameter have propensity to decrease the velocity profile.
