In this paper, the unsteady MHD Couette flow through a porous medium of a viscous incompressible fluid bounded by two parallel porous plates under the influence of thermal radiation and chemical reaction is investigated. A uniform suction and injection are applied perpendicular to the plates while the fluid motion is subjected to the constant pressure gradient. The transformed conservation equations are solved analytically subject to physically appropriate boundary conditions by using the Eigenfunction expansion technique. The influence of some emerging non-dimensional parameters namely, pressure gradient, suction parameter, radiation parameter, and Hartman number are examined in detail. It is observed that the primary velocity is increased with increasing pressure gradient while the increase in radiation parameter leads to adecrease in the thermal profile of the flow.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
