<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The similarity solution for the steady stagnation
flow towards an off-centered rotating disc is gives a systemof
non-linear partial differential equations. These nonlinear
differential equations are numerically solved by applyingwell
known Keller-Box Method. After finding the velocity
distributions, the important designing subject, entropy
generation of this system has been analyzed. Graphical
results are presented to investigate effects of the rotation
ratio α, off-centering, Reynolds number and axial
height on the radial and azimuthal velocities and entropy
generation. In order to show the effectiveness of the Keller-
Box method, the obtained results are compared with available
solutions obtained using DTM. The obtained results
demonstrate the reliability of the algorithm and the Keller-
Box method is an attractive method in solving the systems
of nonlinear partial differential equations, and also the entropy
generation is an important parameter depends on
design andwork conditions that should be in the attention
of designers of these rotating systems.
