Description
Summary:A numerical model was developed to study the effect of magnetic field on a boundary layer flow and convective heat transfer of a dusty Jeffrey fluid over an exponentially stretching surface for a steady case. The similarity transformation are used to reduce the system of governing partial differential equations into set of non-linear ordinary differential equations. The reduced similarity equations are then solved numerically by using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg fourth-fifth method (RKF45) with the help of Maple. The influence of physical parameters such as the magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, Deborah number, mixed convection parameter, the local fluid-particle interaction parameter and heat transfer characteristics are analyzed and discussed in details through tables and graph. Thereafter the obtained numerical results are found to be in good agreement when compared with result for a Newtonian fluid.
