Effects of transpiration on MHD boundary layers

A steady two-dimensional MHD boundary-layer flow on a flat plate with a uniform transpiration through the plate is considered. The shearing stress at the wall is found to increase with the magnetic interaction number and the transpiration number. Injection will cause a shearing stress reduction and eventually a flow separation which can be suppressed by increasing the magnetic interaction number. The velocity profile is substantially altered by both magnetic interaction and transpiration. (AIP)
