Influence of Thermal Radiation, Heat Generation, Chemical Reaction & Suction-Injection on a Three-Dimensional Flow over a Stretching Surface
Author : Kashish Das
Abstract :
The present work is based on the study of a three dimensional steady and laminar flow over a continuously stretching surface. This flow has been under continuous effects of heat generation, thermal radiation, concentration, and chemical reaction along with suction/injection. The governing conservation equations have been formulated and then transformed from partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations with corresponding boundary conditions using similarity transformations. The transformed equations then have been converted to first order linear differential equations. The resultant initial value problem has been solved numerically using ODE45, an inbuilt feature of MATLAB software package, which is based on Range-Kutta 4th order method or shooting method. The graphs have been plotted for various values of different parameters.
