Jeffrey Fluid, Radiation Effect, Inclined Plate, Steady Flow, Boundary Layer
The present paper investigates the radiation effect on the boundary layer flow of an incompressible non Newtonian Jeffrey fluid from an inclined vertical plate. Mathematical Formulation of the problem is achieved by appropriate nonsimilarity transformations. The transformed non-dimensional, coupled, and highly non-linear system of equations is solved numerically using the efficient Keller-box implicit finite difference method. Physical features of the involved parameters are presented and discussed through the graphs. The influence of many multi-physical parameters of these variables are illustrated graphically. The results found that, increasing the radiation parameter (R) on velocity and temperature profiles, increases the skin friction coefficient, but heat transfer coefficient decelerates.
