Abstract

The present paper studies the effect of aligned magnetic field on an unsteady MHD free convection Casson fluid flow past an infinite plate through porous medium in the presence of thermal radiation and heat absorption. When t*>0, the velocity u*=u0, and that time, plate temperature and the concentration are raised to T*w and C*w and a first order chemical reaction takes place. A uniform magnetic field B0 is applied in y*-direction. The systems of non-dimensional governing linear partial differential equations are solved analytically by using the Laplace transform technique. The influences of various non-dimensional parameters on the velocity, the temperature, the concentration, the Sherwood numbers, the local Nusselt and the skin friction have been discussed and analyzed through graphs and tables.
