Unsteady/Steady Hydromagnetic Convective Flow between Two Vertical Walls in the Presence of Variable Thermal Conductivity

Abstract: Unsteady as well as steady natural convection flow in a vertical channel in the presence of uniform magnetic field applied normal to the flow region and temperature dependent variable thermal conductivity is studied. The nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow have been solved numerically using unconditionally stable and convergent semi-implicit finite difference scheme. For steady case, approximate solutions have been derived for velocity, temperature, skin friction, and the rate of heat t… Show more

“…The magnetic field significantly affects the flow of unsteady coutte flow between two infinite parallel porous plates in an inclined magnetic field with heat transfer. Hamza et al [6] suggested a study of two steady and unsteady states of natural convection flow in a vertical channel with the presence of a uniform magnetic field. The partial differential equations were solved approximately using a semi-implicit finite difference scheme, and the computed results for velocity, temperature, and skin friction were discussed and presented graphically.…”

“…Moreover, an increase in Schmidt number causes the velocity and concentration to decrease while it increases temperature distribution. Hamza et al 21 have examined the MHD convective flow between two vertical walls considering variable thermal conductivity and it was observed that velocity and temperature profiles increase with an enhancement in variable thermal conductivity parameter. Hayat et al 22 have discussed effect of inclined magnetic field in flow of third grade fluid with variable thermal conductivity and heat source/sink.…”
