Influence of thermal radiation on unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free convection flow of Jeffrey fluid over a vertical plate with ramped wall temperature is studied. The Laplace transform technique is used to obtain the analytical solutions. Expressions for skin friction and Nusselt number are also obtained. Results of velocity and temperature distributions are shown graphically for embedded parameters such as Jeffrey fluid parameterλ, Prandtl numberPr, Grashof numberGr, Hartmann numberHa, radiation parameterRd, and dimensionless timeτ. It is observed that the amplitude of velocity and temperature profile for isothermal are always higher than ramped wall temperature.

This paper investigates the transient behavior of the free convection motion and heat transfer induced by a heated sphere with prescribed wall temperature embedded instantaneously in an infinite porous medium. Solutions for the velocity and temperature fields have been obtained in the form of series expansions in Rayleigh number which is based on the medium permeability and the temperature of the sphere. All discussions are based on the assumption that the flow is governed by Darcy's law and the thermal Rayleigh number is small.
