The two dimensional fluid flow problem along a flat plate with variable
suction has been considered. Expressions for the velocity and the
skin-friction have been derived in two cases. It has been concluded that
the velocity field is increased by increasing the suction velocity and
there is no back flow near the wall in either of the cases.
Key words:
Suction, MHD, Stokes problem, Skin – friction, convection, Amplitude,
Frequency.
