The effects of viscous dissipation and heat source on MHD flow and heat transfer from a warm, electrically conducting fluid to melting surface parallel to a constant free stream are investigated numerically. This model constitutes highly non-linear governing equations which are transformed using similarity variables and are then solved by fourth order Runge–Kutta scheme along with shooting method. The influence of the various interesting parameters on the velocity and temperature fields within the boundary layer is discussed and explained graphically. It is noticed that the melting phenomenon rises the skin friction coefficient and declines the Nusselt number at the solid interface.
