Description
Summary:The analysis on the problem of heat generation/absorption effects on MHD stagnation point of Jeffrey Fluid is carried out. The governing partial differential equations are first transform as first order ordinary differential equation using similarity transformation before solving using numerical scheme called Keller-box. A comparative study with the previous results is made in order to verify the validation of the present results. The results for the skin friction and heat transfer coefficient as well as velocity and temperature profiles are presented and discussed in details for various values of heat generation/absorption parameter, magnetic parameter, Deborah number and Prandtl number.
