Effects of Thermal and Mass Stratification on Unsteady MHD Flow Past an Oscillating Vertical Plate Embedded in a Porous Medium with Variable Surface Conditions
Abstract
oscillating vertically in its own axis in which it is embedded in a porous medium with variable heat and mass diffusion. For concentration, temperature and velocity fields, the non-dimensional governing equations are solved using the Laplace transform method for the unitary Prandtl and Schmidt numbers, when the plate is oscillating in its own plane harmonically. Numerical computations are carried out and presented in graphs for different physical parameters like thermal Grashof number, phase angle, mass Grashof number, stratification
parameter and time on concentration, velocity, temperature, plate heat flux, mass flux and skin friction. The findings of this study can be utilized to enhance comprehension of MHD flow on vertical oscillating plate in combined stratified environments. Significant findings arising from the mass and thermal stratification are compared to the scenario in which stratification is absent.
