    Magnetohydrodynamic Flow and Heat Transfer of an Upper-Convected Maxwell Fluid Due to a Stretching Sheet

    R. C. Bataller1

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.7, No.2, pp. 153-174, 2011, DOI:10.3970/fdmp.2011.007.153

    Abstract We present a numerical study of the flow and heat transfer of an incompressible upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid in the presence of an uniform transverse magnetic field over a porous stretching sheet taking into account suction at the surface as well as viscous dissipation and thermal radiation effects. Selected similarity analyses have been carried out by means of a numerical implementation. The effects on the velocity and temperature fields over the sheet of the parameters like elasticity number, suction velocity, magnetic parameter, radiation parameter, Prandtl number and Eckert number are also analyzed.

    Towards a Numerical Benchmark for MHD Flows of Upper-Convected Maxwell (UCM) Fluids over a Porous Stretching Sheet

    R.C. Bataller1

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.6, No.3, pp. 337-350, 2010, DOI:10.3970/fdmp.2010.006.337

    Abstract The present research gathers an accurate numerical study of the laminar flow induced in an incompressible upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid by a linear stretching of a flat, horizontal and porous sheet in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The governing partial differential equations are converted into an ordinary differential equation by a similarity transformation. The effects on the velocity field over the sheet of the parameters like elasticity number, suction/blowing velocity, and magnetic parameter are also studied. It has also been attempted to show capabilities and wide-range applications of the 4thorder Runge-Kutta method in More >
