摘要: In this paper, heat transfer characteristics of a two-dimensional steady hydromagnetic natural convection flow micropolar fluid passed non-linear stretching sheet taking into account the effects temperature-dependent viscosity and variable wall temperature are studied numerically for local similarity solutions by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert iteration method. The results corresponding to dimensionless profiles rate displayed graphically important material parameters. show that in modeling thermal boundary layer with viscosity, consideration Prandtl number as constant within produces unrealistic therefore it must be treated rather than layer. also strongly depends on index index.
