Abstract
The aim of the present paper is to study the numerical solutions of the steady magnetohydrodynamic and heat
generation effects on anon-Newtonian fluid with radiation through a porous medium by a stretching cylinder.
The governing continuity, momentum, and energy equations are converted into a system of non-linear ordinary
differential equations by means of similarity transformation. The resulting system of coupled non-linear ordinary
differential equations is solved numerically. Numerical results were presented for velocity and temperature
profiles for different parameters of the problem are studied graphically. Finally, the effects of related physical
parameters on skin friction and the rate of heat transfer are also studied.
