The present paper is concerned to analyze the effect of hall current on heat and thermal radiation and mass transfer of unsteady MHD flow of a viscoelastic micropolar fluid through a porous medium with chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to dimensionless equations using dimensionless variables. The dimensionless governing equations are then solved analytically using perturbation technique. The effects of various governing parameters on the velocity, temperature, concentration, skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are shown in figures and tables and analyzed in detail.

An analysis has been carried out to study the combined effects of heat and mass transfer on the unsteady flow of a micropolar fluid over a stretching sheet. The thermal radiation effects are presented. The arising nonlinear partial differential equations are first reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations and then solved by the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Plots for various interesting parameters are presented and discussed. Numerical data for surface shear stress, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number in steady case are also tabulated. Comparison between the present and previous limiting results is given.
