Heat and mass transfer on MHD flow of Non-Newtonian fluid over an infinite vertical porous plate

摘要

We have considered the boundary-layer flow of a heat-absorbing MHD non-Newtonian fluid along a semi-infinite vertical porous moving plate in the presence of thermal buoyancy effect. The dimensionless governing equations are solved analytically using two-term harmonic and non-harmonic functions. Computational analysis of the results is presented with a view to reveal for the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles within the boundary layer. The Skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also examined with the reference to governing parameters.
