Thermal Diffusion and Mass Transfer Effects on MHD Flow of a Dusty Gas through Porous Medium

摘要

The present problem is concerned with the thermal diffusion mass transfer effects on MHD free convective flow of dusty gas through a porous medium induced by the motion of a semi-infinite flat plate moving with velocity decreasing “exponentially with time”. The effects of various parameters like magnetic parameterMthermal diffusion effect as soret numberS1, permeability parameterK1, Schimdt numberScare taken into account. The velocity profile, temperature field, and concentration of incompressible dusty gas and dust particles for several parameters are discussed numerically and explained graphically.
