Abstract
An attempt is made for the study of steady two-dimensional flow of a viscous and incompressible fluid striking at
some angle of incidence on a stretching sheet. Fluid is considered in the porous media obeying Darcy law, in the
presence of radiation effect. Rosseland approximation is use to model the radiative heat transfer. The stream function
splits into a Hiemenz and a tangential component. Using similarity variables, the governing partial differential
equations are transformed into a set of three non-dimensional ordinary differential equations. These equations are
then solved numerically using fifth order Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method with shooting technique. In the present
reported work the effects of striking angle, radiation parameter, porosity parameter and the Prandtl number on flow
and heat transfer characteristics have been discussed. Variations of above discussed parameters with the stretching
sheet parameter have been graphically presented.
