Heat and Mass Transfer on MHD Heat Generating Flow through a Porous Medium in a Rotating Fluid

Abstract

The problem of the free-convection flow of a viscous heat generating fluid through porous media in a rotating frame of reference is considered for the case when a strong magnetic field is imposed in a direction which is perpendicular to the free-stream and makes an angle α to the vertical direction. Analytical expressions for the velocity field and temperature are given, and the influences of the various parameters on the velocity field are discussed.
