Abstract :
An analysis is presented to investigate the influences of viscous dissipation on MHD natural convection flow along a uniformly heated vertical wavy surface. The governing equations are transformed into dimensionless non-similar equations using a set of suitable transformations and solved numerically by the implicit finite difference method known as the Keller box scheme. Numerical results for the velocity profiles, temperature profiles, skin friction coefficient, and the rate of heat transfers are shown graphically and in tabular form for different values of the selective set of parameters.
