Abstract
This paper investigates the convective flow of an incompressible viscous electrically conducting second grade fluid through a porous medium occupying a semi-infinite region over an oscillating porous plate in presence of a transverse magnetic field with suction. The field equations for the velocity and temperature fields are solved analytically and the expressions for the velocity field, temperature field, skin friction and heat flux are obtained. The effects of permeability parameter, magnetic parameter/Hartmann number, Prandtl number, heat source parameter and suction parameter on the velocity field u are illustrated graphically. The influence of suction parameter, Prandtl number and heat source parameter S on temperature field is analyzed with the help of figures. Furthermore the effects of permeability parameter and magnetic parameter on skin friction are shown diagrammatically.
