Abstract
:The effects of mixed convection with thermal radiation and chemical reaction on MHD flow of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid on a moving inclined heated porous plate is analyzed. The non-linear coupled partial differential equations are solved by perturbation technique. The influence of different pertinent parameters such as Grashof number (Gr), modified Grashof number (Gm), magnetic field parameter (M), heat source parameter (), chemical reaction parameter (γ), Schmidt number (Sc) and angle of inclination () on velocity, temperature and concentration distribution have been studied and analyzed with the help of graphs. An analysis of the coupled heat and mass transfer phenomena is provided in detail. We observed that velocity decreases for increasing values of the angle of inclination α. The results of the present study are compared with the results obtained by Chaudhary et al. [1], and Dulal et al. [4] in the absence of angle of inclination, our results appear to be in good agreement with the existing results. Key words: Heat and mass transfer, Viscous and Ohmic dissipation, Radiation, Chemical reaction, Inclined, Porous plate.
