Radiation Effect on MHD Free Convective Flow Past a Semi-Infinite Porous Vertical Plate Through Porous Medium
Abstract
The study of MHD heat and mass transfer dissipative free convective flow past a semi-infinite porous vertical plate through porous medium in presence of thermal radiation is considered. The novelty of the present work is to examine radiation effect (Rosseland Approximation) on the flow transport characteristics. The equations governing the flow of heat and mass transfer are solved by asymptotic series expansion method to evaluate the expressions for velocity, temperature, concentration fields, skin-friction, rate of heat and mass transfer. The influence of various physical parameters on the flow is discussed through graphs and in tabular form. It is found that an increase in radiation parameter to decrease the velocity and temperature. Further, it is seen that the skin -friction at the plate decreased with increasing values of radiation parameter.
