Abstract

Natural convection of an electrically conducting fluid past a vertical porous flat plate in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field is discussed when the plate is subjected to uniform suction or injection. It is found that for a fixed value of suction or injection both skin friction and rate of heat transfer decrease with increase in magnetic field while for a fixed magnetic field the wall shear and the heat transfer coefficient decrease with injection and increase with suction.
