dc.description.abstractThis paper is an investigation of the effects of chemical reaction on two dimensional steady stagnation point flow of an electricity conducting, incompressible, and viscous fluid with radiation towards a heated shrinking porous surface. A chemically reactive species is emitted from the vertical surface into the flow field. The governing partial differential equations are solved using the Newton-Raphson shooting method along with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration. Velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically. Numerical results for the skin friction coefficient, the rate of heat transfer represented by the local Nusselt number and the rate of mass transfer represented by the local Sherwood number are presented in tables and discussed quantitatively. The effects of magnetic field parameter, the velocity ratio parameter, the radiation parameter, the suction parameter, Schmidt number, Eckert number, Prandti number and reaction rate parameter on the flow field are discussed.en_US
