Abstract

The numerical study of the boundary layer equation is presented in this paper, In the present paper our motive is to understand the Effect of prandtl number for MHD free convective fluid flow past a low heat resistance sheet in porous medium , which is physically modeled as a boundary layer flow in porous media. The governing equations are taken in term of boundary layer equation and then we used similarity transformation to convert this system of PDE into system of Coupled Ordinary differential equation. The resultant coupled system is solved by using Finite difference method. .
