Abstract

We study the nonlinear coupled evolution equations which model the transient MHD natural convection and mass transfer flow of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid between two infinite vertical plates in the presence of the transversal magnetic field, thermal radiation, thermal diffusion and diffusion-thermo effects. Both analytical and numerical methods are used for this study.

Highlights

  • Heat and mass transfer flow of an electrically conducting fluid between parallel plates http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ in the presence of a magnetic field and thermal radiation is of a special significance

  • The effects of the flow governing parameters on velocity, temperature, skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number, have been shown using line graph as demonstrated in Figure 2 through Figure 25. These result show the variations in the velocity field, temperature distribution, skin friction, and heat transfer rate, influenced by the material parameters of the flow problem, that is, the magnetic parameter (M ), radiation parameter ( R), temperature difference parameter (CT ), sustention parameter ( N ), dimensionless time (t ), Prandtl number (Pr), Schmidt number (Sc), thermal

  • Transient MHD natural convection flow in a vertical channel in a presence of thermal radiation, thermal diffusion and diffusion-thermo effects confined between two infinite vertical parallel plates has been investigated

Summary

Introduction

Heat and mass transfer flow of an electrically conducting fluid between parallel plates http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ in the presence of a magnetic field and thermal radiation is of a special significance. Open Access both naturally and in many industrial applications such as magnetohydrodynamic power generators, pumps, cooling of nuclear reactors, geothermal systems, thermal insulators, nuclear waste disposal, petroleum and polymer technology, heat exchangers and others [1]. One of the earliest studies in this field was carried out by [2]. They analyzed the influence of the effects of a transverse uniform magnetic field on the flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid exiting through parallel stationary plates that are insulated.
