摘要
A comprehensive study of MHD two dimensional stagnation point flow with heat and mass transfer characteristics towards a heated shrinking sheet immersed in an electrically conducting incompressible micropolar fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is analyzed numerically. The governing continuity, momentum, angular momentum, mass concentration and heat equations together with the associated boundary conditions are first reduced to a set of self similar nonlinear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation and are then solved by a method based on finite difference discretization. Some important features of the flow, heat & mass transfer characteristics and chemical reaction for different values of the physical parameters are analyzed, discussed and presented through tables and graphs. The study may be beneficial in the flow and heat control of polymeric processing.
