Analytical treatment on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heat transfer due to a stretching hollow cylinder

Abstract: SUMMARYThis paper studied on magnetohydrodynamics flow and heat transfer outside a stretching cylinder. Momentum and energy equations are reduced using similarity transformation and converted into a system of ordinary differential equations which are solved analytically by the homotopy analysis method. The effects of the parameters involved, namely the magnetic parameter (M), Prandtl number (Pr) and Reynolds number (Re) on the velocity and temperature fields are investigated.The obtained results are valid for … Show more

“…We have compared our results with those in [6,8] for special cases of our study and we note that there is good agreement between the different numerical solutions. It is worth mentioning that the recent studies in [9,11] do not provide tables of the relevant boundary derivatives and this can be considered a shortcoming. Figures 2 and 3 show the variation in velocity profiles for varying values of the Reynolds number Re and magnetic parameter , respectively, for both the suction > 0 and injection < 0 cases.…”

“…Most recently, Butt and Ali [36] included the effects of entropy generation in this problem. Chauhan et al [37] generalised the results of Joneidi et al [35] by considering the cylinder to be embedded in a porous medium along with a partial slip boundary condition. Munawar et al [38] examined the unsteady flow and heat transfer due to a stretching cylinder and implemented two general types of thermal boundary conditions.…”
