Abstract

A theoretical analysis of steady free convective and mass transfer flow is presented when a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting fluid flows through a porous medium occupying a semi-infinite region of the space bounded by an infinite vertical porous plate. A magnetic field of uniform strength is applied perpendicular to the plate and the fluid is subjected to a normal suction velocity while the heat flux at the plate is constant. An analytic solution of the problem is obtained and the effects of a porous medium, a magnetic parameter, as well as the other parameter entering into the problem, are discussed and shown graphically.
