Abstract An analytical solution of an MHD free convective thermal diffusive flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting and heat-absorbing fluid past a infinite vertical permeable porous plate in the presence of radiation and chemical reaction is presented. The flow is considered under the influence of a magnetic field applied normal to the flow. The plate is assumed to move with a constant velocity in the direction of fluid flow in slip flow regime, while free stream velocity is assumed to follow the exponentially increasing small perturbation law. The velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number distributions are derived and have shown through graphs and tables by using the simple perturbation technique.

The present study investigates an analytical solution of free convective unsteady fluid flow in presence of thermal diffusion and chemical reaction effects past a vertical porous plate with heat source dependent in slip flow regime. The plate is assumed to move with a constant velocity in the direction of fluid flow, while free stream velocity is assumed to follow exponentially increasing small perturbation law. The velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically for different values of the parameters entering into the problem. Finally the effects of pertinent parameters on the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood numbers distributions are derived and have shown through graphs and tables by using perturbation technique.

The two-dimensional hydromagnetic free convective flow of elastico-viscous fluid (Walters liquid Model B′) with simultaneous heat and mass transfer past an infinite vertical porous plate under the influence of gravity modulation effects has been analysed. Generalized Navier’s boundary condition has been used to study the characteristics of slip flow regime. Fluctuating characteristics of temperature and concentration are considered in the neighbourhood of the surface having periodic suction. The governing equations of fluid motion are solved analytically by using perturbation technique. Various fluid flow characteristics (velocity profile, viscous drag, etc.) are analyzed graphically for various values of flow parameters involved in the solution. A special emphasis is given on the gravity modulation effects on both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids.

Abstract A theoretical study is carried out to obtain an analytical solution of free convective heat transfer for the flow of a polar fluid through a porous medium with variable permeability bounded by a semi-infinite vertical plate in a slip flow regime. A uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the porous surface. The free stream velocity follows an exponentially decreasing small perturbation law. Using the approximate method the expressions for the velocity, microrotation, and temperature are obtained. Further, the results of the skin friction coefficient, the couple stress coefficient and the rate of heat transfer at the wall are presented with various values of fluid properties and flow conditions.

We consider unsteady flow of a micropolar fluid through a porous medium bounded by a semi-infinite vertical plate in slip-flow regime. A uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the porous surface which absorbs the micropolar fluids with a suction velocity varying with time. The free stream velocity follows an exponentially increasing or decreasing small perturbation law. Using approximate method the expression for the velocity microrotation, and temperature are obtained.
