Summary

Exact solutions for hydromagnetic boundary-layer flow and heat transfer over a continuous, moving, flat surface with uniform suction and internal heat generation/absorption are obtained. Flow of this type represents a new class of boundary-layer problems, with solutions substantially different from those for boundary-layer flow on a flat surface of finite length. These solutions are even exact solutions of the complete Navier-Stokes equations and the energy equation.
