Chemically Reacting Unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic Oscillatory Slip Flow of a Micropolar Fluid in a Planer Channel with Varying Concentration

Abstract

The study examines the problem of unsteady MHD mixed convection in a micropolar fluid with oscillatory flow of an electrically conducting optically thin fluid through a planer channel filled with saturated porous medium. The effect of buoyancy, heat source, thermal radiation and chemical reaction are taken into account embedded with slip boundary condition, varying temperature and concentration. The closed-form analytical solutions are obtained for the momentum, angular momentum, energy and concentration equations. The influence of the various parameters entering into the problem in the velocity, temperature and concentration fields are discussed with the help of graphs. Finally the effects of the pertinent parameters on the skin friction, couple stress and the rate of heat transfer coefficient at the plate are discussed.
