Abstract
In this investigation, we discuss the mixed convection fl ow of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) thixotropic fl uid over a linear stretching surface. Heat transfer is analyzed in the presence of thermal radiation and ohmic heating. The surface is subjected to a prescribed heat fl ux. Appropriate transformations are employed to reduce the partial diff erential systems into the ordinary diff erential systems. Homotopic procedure is implemented to obtain the series solutions for the resulting nonlinear fl ow systems. Plots are presented and discussed. Numerical values of the skin-friction coeffi cient and local Nusselt number are constructed and analyzed.
