Özet

A theoretical study on the asymptotic suction/injection magnetohydrodynamic flow as a result of a uniform freestream couple stress fluid flowing over a flat surface is undertaken in the current study. It is targeted to obtain exact flow and temperature solutions representing the permeable couple stress fluid flow. Analytical expressions are extracted to derive interesting engineering tools such as momentum layer thickness, thermal layer thickness, wall shear stress, and heat transfer rate. The physical parameters leading to the existence of wall suction/injection solutions are determined with their thresholds. Momentum and thermal layer analysis from the present results clearly reveal how they are influenced by the presence of electrically conducting couple stress fluid. Further flow studies of similar kind will certainly benefit from the presented formulae.
