Effect of Mass Transfer and Hall Current on Unsteady MHD Flow with Thermal Diffusivity of a Viscoelastic Fluid in a Porous Medium

Abstract

The paper investigated the effect of mass transfer and Hall current on unsteady MHD flow with Thermal Diffusivity of a viscoelastic fluid in a porous medium. The resultant equations have been solved analytically. The velocity, temperature and concentration distributions are derived, and their profiles for various physical parameters are shown through graphs. The coefficient of Skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number at the plate are derived and their numerical values for various physical parameters are presented through tables. The influence of various parameters such as the thermal Grashof number, mass Grashof number, Schmidt number, Prandtl number, viscoelasticity parameter, Hartmann number, Hall parameter, and the frequency of oscillation on the flow field are discussed. It is seen that, the velocity increases with the increase in Gc, Gr, m and K, and it decreases with increase in Sc,M, n and Pr, temperature decreases with increase in Pr and n, Also, the concentration decreases with the increase in Sc and n.
