Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate a system of differential equations related to the viscous flow over a stretching sheet. It is assumed that the intended environment for the flow includes a chemical reaction and a magnetic field. The governing equations are defined on the semi-finite domain and a numerical scheme, namely rational Gegenbauer collocation method is applied to solve it. In this method, the problem is solved in its main interval (semi-infinite domain) and there is no need to truncate it to a finite domain or change the domain of the problem. By carefully examining the effect of important physical parameters of the problem and comparing the obtained results with the answers of other methods, we show that despite the simplicity of the proposed method, it has a high degree of convergence and good accuracy.
