Abstract
Purpose
The aim of the present paper is to investigate the homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions on Prandtl fluid flow at a stretching sheet with an induced magnetic field and slip boundary conditions.
Design/methodology/approach
The governing equations include the continuity, induced magnetic field, momentum, energy and homogeneous–heterogeneous equations. Initially, with suitable similarity variables, the governing partial differential equations and converted into a system of ordinary differential equations. Then, the nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved by a shooting technique with the help of the BVC5C Matlab package.
Findings
The results of the present investigation are presented through graphs for different values of the various parameters. The authors observed that the large values of the stretching ratio and the induced magnetic parameters are moderate magnetic field, velocity and temperature primarily. Also, the authors found the more velocity and temperatures by boosting the slip parameters.
Originality/value
In addition, the values of the skin friction and the rate of heat transfer for various values of physical parameters are tabulated and deliberated in detail.
