Magnetohydrodynamic and constant suction/injection effects of axisymmetric stagnation point flow and mass transfer for power-law fluids
The boundary-layer equations for axisymmetric point flow of power-law electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium with transverse magnetic field are solved by a similarity transformation. Theoretical expressions for local and average Sherwood number are derived from the convective diffusion equation for the system with high Schmidt number. The numerical values of the velocity profiles and shear rate at the wall are discussed.
