Effect of Radiation Absorption and Chemical Reaction on Transient Hydromagnetic Convective Heat and Mass Transfer Flow in a Rotating Porous Medium with Heat Sources

Abstract

In this paper, we discussed the effect of radiation absorption and chemical reaction on transient hydromagnetic convective heat and mass transfer flow in a rotating porous medium with heat sources, when the temperature of the surface varies with time about a non-zero constant mean and the temperature at the free stream is constant. The non-linear coupled equations have been solved by perturbation technique. The velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, rate of heat and mass transfer have been discussed for different variations of the governing parameters G, R, γ, Q₁, α and Pr.
