Abstract

This paper examines the effect of MHD, and injection through one side of a long vertical channel embedded in porous medium with transpiration cooling. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations have been transformed by similarity transformation into a set of ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically by Adam-moultan Predictor-Corrector method with Newton-Raphson Method for missing initial conditions. Proflles of dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration are shown graphically for different parameters entering into the analysis. Also the effects of the pertinent parameters on the heat transfer rates are tabulated. An analysis of the results obtained shows that the flow field is influenced appreciably by emerging parameters of the present study.
