Chemical Reaction and Radiation Effect on MHD Flow Past an Exponentially Accelerated Vertical Plate in Presence of Heat Source with Variable Temperature Embedded in a Porous Medium

Abstract

In this paper we analyse the effect of chemical reaction and radiation on MHD fluid flow through a porous medium in a uniform magnetic field with variable temperature and mass diffusion with heat source past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate. The non-dimensional equations governing the above flow characteristics are solved by using Laplace Transformation and the effect of different physical parameters on the velocity profile, temperature profile and concentration profile are illustrated graphically. 

Keywords: Variable temperature, heat source, radiation, porous medium.
