Analysis of Non-Isothermal MHD Thin Film Flow from Moving Belt with Slip and Variable viscosity

Abstract

This paper aims the study of electrically conducting Newtonian fluid flow and heat transfer considering the slip at the moving belt with temperature dependent viscosity. A domain decomposition method (ADM) is employed to solve the non-linear system of equations. Explicit expressions are obtained for velocity profile and temperature distribution. Effect of variable viscosity parameter, slip, Hartmann number, Brinkmann number and Stoke number are discussed and graphically shown.
