Analytical solutions of an unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow with heat and mass transfer characteristics of an incompressible, viscous, electrically conducting, and Boussinesq fluid over a vertical oscillating plate embedded in a Darcian porous medium in the presence of a thermal radiation are presented. The fluid considered here is a gray, absorbing/emitting radiating, but nonscattering medium. At time t > 0, the plate temperature and concentration near the plate are raised linearly with time t. The dimensionless governing coupled unsteady boundary layer partial differential equations are solved by the Laplace transform technique. An increase in permeability parameter (K) is found to increase fluid velocities and shear stress in the regime. Also it was found that when the conduction-radiation parameter (R) increased, the fluid velocity and the temperature profiles decreased. Applications of the study are found in materials processing and solar energy collector systems.
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.
