Comment on "Chebyshev finite difference method for the effects of variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity on heat transfer to a micro-polar fluid from a non-isothemal stretching sheet with suction and blowing," by S.N. Odda and A.M. Farhan

In the paper [Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2006, vol. 30, pp. 851-858]the authors treat the boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid along a horizontal flat plate with blowing or suction. The fluid viscosity and thermal conductivity are assumed functions of temperature. The boundary layer equations are transformed into ordinary ones and subsequently are solved using the Chebyshev finite difference method. However, there are some deficiencies and errors in this paper.

Some new parallel flows due to Lorentz forces in electrically conducting fluids

We investigate the fully developed flow between two parallel plates and the film flow over a plate in an electrically conducting fluid under the action of a parallel Lorentz force. Exact analytical solutions are derived for velocity, flow rate and wall shear stress at the plates. The velocity results are presented in figures. All these flows are new and are presented for the first time in the literature.
