Abstract

Viscous dissipation and radiative heat transfer with the influence of chemical reaction and magnetic field over a rotating stretching surface has been investigated numerically. the steady laminar boundary layer flow is considered in this study. The governing boundary layer equations are formulated and transformed into non linear ordinary coupled differential equations by using similarity variables. The governing equations solved numerically Runge-kutta method shooting technique. The numerical results are presented graphically to illustrate influence of physical parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions as well as skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood number at the sheet.
