Magnetohydrodynamic Boundary Layer Slip Flow and Heat Transfer of Power Law Fluid over a Flat Plate

In this paper, we consider the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer of power law fluid over a flat plate with slip boundary conditions. We use a similarity transformation to convert the governing nonlinear partial differential equations into a system of ordinary differen...
