Abstract
The consequences of radiation absorption and chemical reaction in the presence of heat generation on a MHD unsteady laminar flow with mass and heat transfer of an electrically conducting, incompressible, and viscous fluid over an accelerated exponentially inclined vertical moving porous plate in a porous medium are analyzed in closed form. A perfect solution for this flow problem was obtained by resolving the resulting governing equations by the technique of Laplace transforms. The exact solutions for profiles of concentration, temperature, velocity, and the gradient of velocity are presented, and the effects of these profiles for several values of various arguments are discussed through graphs.
