Unsteady MHD Convective flow of Rivlin-Ericksen Fluid over an Infinite Vertical Porous Plate with Absorption Effect and Variable Suction

摘要

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