Stagnation-Point Flow by an Exponentially Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Viscous Dissipation and Thermal Radiation

Abstract

The stagnation-point flow of viscous fluid induced by an exponentially stretching sheet is investigated in the presence of viscous dissipation and thermal radiation. Appropriate transformations reduced the partial differential equation into the ordinary differential equations. The resulting nonlinear problems are computed. Nusselt number values are tabulated. Comparative study between present and previous attempts made in a limiting sense. The flow quantities through pertinent parameters are examined.
