Abstract: | Unsteady flow of an incompressible, viscous, electrically conducting fluid past an infinite porous plate has been analysed under the following assumptions: (i) suction velocity oscillates in time about a constant mean, (ii) the free-stream velocity oscillates in time about a constant mean, (iii) the plate temperature is constant, (iv) the difference between the temperature of the plate and the free-stream is moderately large causing the free-convection currents, (v) a uniform transverse magnetic field is applied, (vi) the magnetic Reynolds number is very small and hence the induced magnetic field is neglected. Approximate solutions to the coupled non-linear equations governing the flow are derived for the transient velocity, the transient temperature, the amplitude and the phase of the skin-friction and the rate of heat transfer. During the course of analysis the effects of ±G (Grashof number),P (Prandtl number),M (magnetic field parameter),A (suction parameter) and ω (frequency) are discussed. |
