Unsteady MHD Second Grade Fluids Flow in a Porous Medium with Ramped Wall Temperature
Authors: , , ,
Abstract: In this paper, the unsteady MHD flow of second grade fluids in a porous medium are analyzed. It is assumed that the bounding infinite inclined plate has a ramped wall temperature with the presence of heat and mass diffusion. Closed-form solutions in a general form are obtained by using the Laplace transform technique. The obtained results for velocity is found to satisfy all the imposed initial and boundary conditions. It can be reduced to known solutions from the literature as limiting cases.
