Abstract
In this paper the effect of unsteady, incompressible, magneto hydrodynamics filled with electrically conducting viscoelastic fluid in an infinite vertical Couette porous channel wall embedded in a porous medium is analyzed. A uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the channel wall. The temperature of the moving channel wall varies periodically and the temperature difference between the two infinite vertical channel walls is high due to thermal radiation. The Eckert number is the ratio of the kinetic energy of the flow to the temperature difference of the channel walls. The solution of the governing equations is obtained using regular perturbation techniques. These techniques are used to transform partial differential equations that are difficult to solve in closed form. These equations are reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations in dimensionless form so can be solved analytically. The effects of physical parameters Viz. Hartmann number, Viscoelastic parameter, Eckert number, Permeability of porous medium, Chemical reaction parameter, thermal Grashof number for heat transfer, modified Grashof number for mass transfer, frequency parameter and Schmidt number on flow parameters Viz., velocity, temperature and concentration has been discussed and shown graphically. The theoretical results have been supported by MATLAB code simulation study. The results show that velocity decreases with increasing values of frequency, Hartmann number and viscoelastic parameter but reverse effect is observed with temperature, thermal Grashof number, modified Grashof number and permeability of porous medium. Furthermore, The result shows that an increment in both thermal radiation parameter and Eckert number results in decrement of temperature near the moving porous channel wall while it approaches to a zero in the region close to the boundary layer of the stationary channel wall,. An increment in both chemical reaction and Schmidt number results in decreasing concentration. The velocity of fluid increases as Grashof number and modified Grashof number increases.
