Heat and Mass Transfer to Unsteady MHD Viscoelastic Slip Flow through a Porous Medium with Chemical Reaction

Abstract

In the present paper, an analysis is carried out to heat and mass transfer to unsteady flow of an electrically conducting incompressible non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid filled in a vertical channel in the presence of transverse magnetic field through porous medium with heat source. The fluid and the channel rotate as a solid body with constant angular velocity, about an axis perpendicular to the planes of the plates. The effects of thermal radiation and chemical reaction are taken into account embedded with slip boundary condition. The momentum, energy and concentration equations are solved by using closed-from of analytical solution. The influences of the various parameters entering into the problem are illustrated with the help of graphs. Possible applications of the present study include engineering science and applied mathematics in the context of aerodynamics, geophysics and aeronautics.
