• EFFECT OF HALL CURRENTS, THERMOPHORESIS ON THE MHD MIXED CONVECTIVE FLOW PAST A PERMEABLE STRETCHING SURFACE WITH THERMAL RADIATION

Abstract

The present analysis deals with the effect of Hall currents, thermal radiation on the mixed convection flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid past an unsteady porous stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium under the influence of transverse uniform magnetic field in the presence of thermophoresis and chemical reaction with convective boundary condition. Numerical solutions of the governing equations are obtained using Keller-box technique. The profiles of primary and secondary velocities, temperature and concentration are graphically presented for various values of suction parameter, thermal radiation parameter, Hall parameter, magnetic parameter etc. The values of local skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are tabulated for various values of parameters that occur in the analysis.
