Popis:	In this paper, we investigated the hydromagnetic steady flow of a viscous conducting fluid in a twodimensional uniform width linearly diverging channel. For this investigation the effect of an externally applied homogeneous magnetic field on the development of velocity profiles and internal flow separation in the diverging channel are observed. The solution for the flow governing non-linear differential equation is found using perturbation method together with Pade approximation technique. The investigation results reveal that the requirement of flow Reynolds number for the development of internal flow separation increases with an increase in magnetic field intensity. Furthermore, the behavior of velocity profiles under the effect of magnetic field is discussed.
