Analysis Of Heat And Mass Transfer Of An Inclined Magnetic Field Pressure-Driven Flow Past A Permeable Plate, M. S. Dada, S. O. Salawu Jun 2017

Analysis Of Heat And Mass Transfer Of An Inclined Magnetic Field Pressure-Driven Flow Past A Permeable Plate, M. S. Dada, S. O. Salawu

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The study considers heat and mass transfer of magnetohydrodynamics pressure-driven flow passed a stretching permeable surface in the presence of inclined uniform magnetic field. The equations governing the model are transformed by Lie’s group and solved using weighted residual method. The results obtained are compared with that of fourth order Runge-Kutta method that show the effects of Skin friction, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers on the flow. Finally, the influence of some important parameters on the flow are presented graphically and discussed.


Thermal Convection In A Couple-Stress Fluid In The Presence Of Horizontal Magnetic Field With Hall Currents, Jaimala And Vikrant, Vivek Kumar Jun 2013

Thermal Convection In A Couple-Stress Fluid In The Presence Of Horizontal Magnetic Field With Hall Currents, Jaimala And Vikrant, Vivek Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The thermal stability of a couple-stress fluid is considered to include the effects of uniform horizontal magnetic field and Hall currents. The analysis is carried out within the framework of linear stability theory and normal made technique. For the case of stationary convection, magnetic field has stabilizing effect whereas Hall currents are found to have destabilizing effect on the system. The couple stress, however, has dual character in contrast to its stabilizing effect in the absence of Hall currents. Oscillatory modes are not allowed in the system. Graphs in each case have been plotted by giving numerical values to the …


Chemical Reaction And Hall Effects On Mhd Convective Flow Along An Infinite Vertical Porous Plate With Variable Suction And Heat Absorption, S. Masthanrao, K. S. Balamurugan, S. V. K. Varma, V. C. C. Raju Jun 2013

Chemical Reaction And Hall Effects On Mhd Convective Flow Along An Infinite Vertical Porous Plate With Variable Suction And Heat Absorption, S. Masthanrao, K. S. Balamurugan, S. V. K. Varma, V. C. C. Raju

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper an attempt is made to study the chemical reaction and combined buoyancy effects of thermal and mass diffusion on MHD convective flow along an infinite vertical porous plate in the presence of Hall current with variable suction and heat generation. A uniform magnetic field is applied in a direction normal to the porous plate. The equations governing the fluid flow are solved using the perturbation technique and the expressions for the velocity, the temperature and the concentration distributions have been obtained. Dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are displayed graphically for different values of the parameters entering …


Stability Of Stratified Couple-Stress Dusty Fluid In The Presence Of Magnetic Field Through Porous Medium, Vivek Kumar Dec 2011

Stability Of Stratified Couple-Stress Dusty Fluid In The Presence Of Magnetic Field Through Porous Medium, Vivek Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The combined effect of magnetic field and dust particles on the stability of a stratified couplestress fluid through a porous medium is considered. For stable stratification, the system is found to be stable for disturbances of all wave numbers. The magnetic field succeeds in stabilizing the potentially unstable stratifications for a certain wave-number range which were unstable in the absence of the magnetic field. Discussions of oscillatory and non-oscillatory modes are also made.
