MHD Free Convection Flow Across an Inclined Porous Plate in the Presence of Heat Source, ISoret Effect, and Chemical Reaction Affected by Viscous Dissipation Ohmic Heating

Abstract

This work studies the steady two-dimensional MHD free convection flow past an inclined porous plate embedded in the porous medium in the presence of heat source, iSoret effect, and chemical reaction. The non-dimensional governing equations are solved by the perturbation technique. The Rosseland approximation is utilized to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. The effect of magnetic parameter, heat source parameter, radiation parameter, Grashofi number, modified Grashofi number, Schmidt number, Prandtl number, porosity parameter, Soreti number, and chemical reaction on velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are mainly focussed in discussion with the help of graphs. It is seen that velocity, concentration, and skin friction fall with the increasing value of chemical reaction. Further, temperature, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number increase with the increasing value of chemical reaction.
