Free convection MHD flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical plate with heat and mass in the presence of radiation has been studied. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using Laplace transfer technique. The plate temperature and mass concentrations are raised harmonically. The result is obtained for velocity, temperature, concentration, Nusselt number, Sherwood number and skin friction. The effect of various material parameters are discussed on flow variable and presented by graphs.

Abstract


Free convection MHD flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical plate with heat and mass in the presence of radiation has been studied. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using Laplace transfer technique. The plate temperature and mass concentrations are raised harmonically. The result is obtained for velocity, temperature, concentration, Nusselt number, Sherwood number and skin friction. The effect of various material parameters are discussed on flow variable and presented by graphs.
