Unsteady Mhd Casson Fluid Flow Through Porous Medium With Heat Source/Sink And Time Dependent Suction

Sunita Choudhary, Mamta Goyal

Abstract

This paper presents an analytical investigation of the unsteady MHD flow of Casson fluid over a porous plate embedded in a porous medium in the presence of heat source/sink and thermal radiation. The plate is subjected to a variable suction velocity. The present problem has immediate applications in optimization of solidification processes of metals, alloys, the geothermal source investigation and nuclear fuel debris treatment. The governing equations are solved under appropriate boundary conditions using the perturbation technique. The effect of various physical parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles is discussed and presented graphically. Also the skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number are calculated with the aid of tables.

Keywords
