| Summary: | Present paper investigates 2D (Two-Dimensional) stagnation-point velocity-slip flow over porous
stretching sheet. The governing non-linear PDEs (Partial Differential Equations) are non-dimensionlized
by using the similarity transformation technique that results into coupled non-linear ODEs (Ordinary
Differential Equations). Such ODEs are then solved by using shooting technique with fourth-order
Runge-Kutta method. Since the behavior of boundary layer stagnation-point flow depends on the rate of
cooling and stretching. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to analyze the effects of different
working parameters on shear stress, heat transfer, velocity and temperature of fluid. The results revealed
that the velocity-slip has significant effect on the fluid flow as well as on the heat transfer. The numerical
results are also compared with existing work for no-slip condition and found to have good agreement with
improved asymptotic behavior. |
