The objective of this paper is to study the effects of Hall current and radiation absorption on MHD free convection mass transfer flow of a micropolar fluid in a rotating frame of reference. A uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the porous surface in which absorbs micropolar fluid with a constant suction velocity. The entire system rotates about the axes normal to the plate with uniform angular velocity Ω. The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are reduced to a system of linear differential equations using regular perturbation method, and equations are solved analytically. The influence of various flow parameters of the flow field has been discussed and explained graphically. The present study is of immediate interest in geophysical, cosmically fluid dynamics, medicine, biology, and all those processes which are greatly embellished by a strong magnetic field with a low density of the gas
This paper deals with a steady MHD forced convective flow of a viscous fluid of finite depth in a saturated porous medium over a fixed horizontal channel with thermally insulated and impermeable bottom wall in the presence of viscous dissipation and joule heating. The governing equations are solved in the closed form and the exact solutions are obtained for velocity and temperature distributions when the temperatures on the fixed bottom and on the free surface are prescribed. The expressions for flow rate, mean velocity, temperature, mean temperature, mean mixed temperature in the flow region and the Nusselt number on the free surface have been obtained. The cases of large and small values of porosity coefficients have been obtained as limiting cases. Further, the cases of small depth (shallow fluid) and large depth (deep fluid) are also discussed. The results are presented and discussed with the help of graphs
