Abstract: | A new analytical method (DTM-Padé) was developed for solving magnetohydrodynamic boundary-layer equations. It was shown that differential transform method (DTM) solutions are only valid for small values of independent variable. Therefore the DTM is not applicable for solving MHD boundary-layer equations, because in the boundary-layer problem y→∞. Numerical comparisons between the DTM-Padé and numerical methods (by using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta and shooting method) revealed that the new technique is a powerful method for solving MHD boundary-layer equations. |
