Abstract

The steady boundary layer viscous incompressible fluid flow on a permeable flat plate embedded in a porous medium has been considered in the present study. The momentum transport phenomena are subjected to external magnetic field, permeability of the porous medium and cross flow due to presence of suction and injection. Moreover, the heat transfer phenomena consider the loss of thermal energy due to radiation and mass transfer phenomena accounts for the generative/destructive chemical reaction of the reactive species as well. Most importantly, the temperature dependent viscosity and thermal conductivity of the fluid makes the present study more realistic. The numerical solution presented through graphs brings out the interesting outcomes: The higher rate of suction enhances the fluid temperature. This observation is akin to the fact that the higher suction brings the molecules closure hence the heat transfer increases. The porous medium, embedding the plate, acts as a coolant by reducing the fluid temperature.
