Perturbation technique is applied to transform the non-linear coupled governing partial differential equations in dimensionless form into a system of ordinary differential equations. The resulting equations are solved analytically and the solutions for the velocity and temperature fields are obtained. For different values of the flow parameters, the values for Nusselt number and skin-friction co-efficient are calculated. It is observed that the increase in the radiation parameter implies the decrease in the boundary layer thickness and enhances the rate of heat transfer. The velocity decreases as the existence of magnetic field becomes stronger. 2014-06-17T08:54:03Z 2014-06-17T08:54:03Z 2013 Article Applied Mathematics and Computational Intelligence (AMCI), vol.2 (1), 2013, pages 75-83 2289-1315 (print) 2289-1323 (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/35612 http://amci.unimap.edu.my/Vol_2_1_2013/02.html en Institute of Engineering Mathematics, Universiti Malaysia Perlis
