In this paper, the exact solutions for unsteady free convection flow of rotating second grade fluid over an isothermal oscillating vertical plate are investigated. This phenomenon is modeled in the form of partial differential equations with initial and boundary conditions. Some suitable non dimensional variables are introduced. The corresponding non-dimensional equations with conditions are solved using Laplace transform technique. Exact solutions for velocity and energy profiles are obtained. They are expressed in simple forms in terms of exponential and complementary error functions of Gauss. It is found that they satisfy governing equations and conditions imposed. Computations are carried out and the results are analyzed for various emerging parameters.

In this paper, the problem of unsteady free convection flow moves along a vertical plate in a second grade fluid is studied. The vertical plate with constant temperature is considered. The dimensional governing equations are transformed into non dimensional equations using appropriate dimensionless variables and solved numerically using Finite Difference Method. Numerical results for velocity and temperature profiles are displayed graphically for viscoelastic parameter, Grashof number and Prandtl number and discussed in details. It is found that, increasing the values of Grashof number and time leads to increase in the velocity profiles. Increasing the values of the Prandtl number and viscoelastic parameter is found to decrease the velocity profile. It is further found that, increasing the values of Prandtl number tends to decrease the thermal boundary layer thickness.

Effects of Newtonian heating and mass diffusion on magnetohydrodynamic free convection flow over a vertical plate that applies arbitrary shear stress to the fluid is studied. The fluid is considered electrically conducting and passing through a porous medium. The influence of thermal radiation in the energy equations is also considered. General solutions of the problem are obtained in closed form using the Laplace transform technique. They satisfy the governing equations, initial and boundary conditions and can set up a huge number of exact solutions correlatives to various fluid motions. The effects of various parameters on velocity profiles are shown graphically and discussed in details

Effects Of Radiation

The present paper is on study of the influence of radiation on unsteady free convection flow of Brinkman type fluid near a vertical plate containing a ramped temperature profile. Using the appropriate variables, the basic governing equations are reduced to nondimensional equations valid with the imposed initial and boundary conditions. The exact solutions are obtained by using Laplace transform technique. The influence of radiation near a ramped temperature plate is also compared with the flow near a plate with constant temperature. The numerical computations are carried out for various values of the physical parameters such as velocity, temperature, skin friction and Nusselt number and presented graphically.
