ABSTRACT
The effects of heat generation on the Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) natural convection flow along a vertical flat plate with non-uniform surface temperature are analyzed. The governing differential equations are transformed by introducing appropriate non-similarity variables to render them dimensionless, and then numerically resolved. Results for the details of velocity profiles, temperature profiles, local skin frictions, and rate of heat transfer are displayed graphically, and numerical tabulated data for skin friction and rate of local heat transfer are entered in tables with heat generation parameters and Joule Heating parameters.
Keywords: Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), Natural convection, Joule heating, Heat generation.
