The steady laminar incompressible boundary layer mixed convection flow of an electrically conducting fluid on a vertical flat plate in the presence of an applied magnetic field has been studied. The effect of the induced magnetic field has been considered in the analysis. The resulting partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations which have been solved numerically using shooting method. Two cases are considered here for the buoyancy force: (i) when it acts in the same direction as the forced flow (Tw > T∞), (ii) when it acts in the opposite direction to the forced flow (Tw < T∞). The velocity profiles, temperature profiles, the skin friction on the plate and the rate of heat transfer coeffcient (Nusselt number) are computed and discussed for different values of the magnetic force number β, the thermal buoyancy force ╏, reciprocal of the magnetic Prandtl number α and viscous dissipation parameter (Eckert number) Ec for the two cases.
