Bataller, R.C.
Magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer of an upper-convected Maxwell fluid due to a stretching sheet. (English)
[J] FDMP, Fluid Dyn. Mater. Process. 7, No. 2, 153-174 (2011). ISSN 1555-256X; ISSN 1555-2578/e

Summary: 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.
