by V. Manjulatha, S.V.K. Varma, V.C.C Raju

Abstract:
In this article, an analysis is carried out to study the effects of aligned magnetic field, radiation absorption and viscous dissipation on the MHD unsteady convective heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting and heat absorbing fluid along a vertical porous plate embedded in a porous medium with variable temperature and concentration. This study is carried out as effect of aligned magnetic field has not been considered so far. The effects of various flow parameters affecting the flow field are discussed.

Keywords: radiation absorption, porous medium, viscous dissipation, heat and mass transfer, heat source/sink.
