Abstract

Abstract: The numerical solutions for heat and mass transfer by laminar flow of a Newtonian, viscous, electrically conducting and heat generation/absorbing fluid on a continuously vertical permeable surface in the presence of a radiation, a first-order homogeneous chemical reaction and the mass flux are considered. The plate is assumed to move with a constant velocity in the direction of fluid flow. A uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the porous surface, which absorbs the fluid with a suction velocity varying with time. The Equations of continuity, linear momentum, energy and diffusion, which govern the flow field, are solved by using a Finite Element Method. The results of the velocity, temperature, concentration, skin- friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number has been discussed for variations in the governing parameters. Keywords: MHD, Radiation, Heat and Mass Transfer, Porous Medium, Unsteady flow, Finite Element Method.
