Nanofluid Flow in a Semi-porous Channel in the Presence of Uniform Magnetic Field

In this paper, the problem of laminar nanofluid flow in a semi-porous channel is investigated analytically using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). This problem is in the presence of transverse magnetic field. Here, it has been attempted to show the capabilities and wide-range applications of the Homotopy Perturbation Method in comparison with the numerical method in solving such problems. The...

Study of Couple Stresses on MHD Poiseuille Flow through Porous Medium in a parallel plate channel

In this paper a mathematical analysis of effect of couple stresses on magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) flow past a parallel plate channel of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid in the presence of porous medium has been studied. An exact solution of the dimensionless governing equations has been obtained by using method of perturbation technique. The effects on velocity, discharg...

Effect of Mass Transfer on MHD Mixed Convective Flow along Inclined Porous Plate with Thermodiffusion

The effect of mass transfer on MHD mixed convective flow along inclined porous plate with thermodiffusion have been analyzed on the basis of boundary layer approximations. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and dense, and a uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the direction of the flow. A Similarity transformation is used to transform the problem under consideration into coupled n...

Effect of variable thermal conductivity on heat and mass transfer flow over a vertical channel with magnetic field intensity

The objective of this paper is to study thermal conductivity and magnetic field intensity effects on heat and mass transfer flow over a vertical channel both numerically and analytically. The non-linear partial differential equations governing the flow are non-dimensionalised, simplified and solved using Crank Nicolson type of implicit finite difference method. To check the accuracy of the nume...
