MHD free convective heat and mass transfer flow with Hall current and constant heat flux through a porous medium (Q1346459)

An unsteady MHD free convective heat and mass transfer flow with Hall current of an electrically conducting incompressible viscous fluid through a porous medium along an infinite vertical porous plate is studied taking into account a constant heat flux at the plate. In the flow a uniform magnetic field acts in a plane which makes an angle \(\alpha\) with the plane transverse to the plate. A similarity parameter taken as a function of time is introduced in the analysis. The suction velocity is then taken to be inversely proportional to the above parameter. Similarity equations are derived and solved numerically by the method of superposition.
