Numerical simulation for nonlinear radiative flow by convective cylinder

AbstractPresent study explores the effect of nonlinear thermal radiation and magnetic field in boundary layer flow of viscous fluid due to nonlinear stretching cylinder. An incompressible fluid occupies the porous medium. Nonlinear differential systems are obtained after invoking appropriate transformations. The problems in hand are solved numerically. Effects of flow controlling parameters on velocity, temperature, local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt numbers are discussed. It is found that the dimensionless velocity decreases and temperature increases when magnetic parameter is enhanced. Temperature profile is also increasing function of thermal radiation
