MHD FREE CONVECTION FLOW THROUGH A POROUS MEDIUM BOUNDED BY AN INFINITE VERTICAL PLATE WITH CONSTANT HEAT FLUX

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Scientific Research - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper considers the problem of free convective flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a porous medium bounded by an infinite vertical porous plate in the presence of transverse magnetic field. The plate is subjected to a normal suction velocity and the heat flux at the plate is constant. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations by means of similarity transformations. Numerical solution of the resulting coupled ordinary differential equations using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg Forth-Fifth order method is obtained. The effect of various parameters are presented and discussed
