Abstract
An exact solution of the steady three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is obtained for the case of flow past a porous plate at zero incidence in a rotating frame of reference by using similarity analysis. In particular, the behaviour of the MHD Ekman layer on a flat plate, subjected to suction and blowing, is studied. It is seen that the Ekman-layer thickness is inversely proportional to suction and directly proportional to blowing for a given Taylor number and magnetic parameter. Further, the Ekman-layer thickness is found to be inversely proportional to both the Taylor number and the magnetic parameter either under suction or blowing. Along with this study, other related effects are in juxtaposition.
