Abstract
We analyze the effects of hall current and radiation on unsteady hydro magnetic free convection flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid past an inclined parabolic accelerated plate in a porous medium by applying a transverse magnetic field which makes an angle α to the inclined plate. The fluid is assumed to be viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting with a strong magnetic field. Using the modified Ohm’s law and the Bossinesq approximation the governing equations of the problem are reduced to local non-similarity boundary layer equations using suitable transformation. The dimensionless governing equations of flow field are solved numerically by Crank-Nicolson finite difference method for different values of governing flow parameters. The velocity and temperature profiles are shown through graphs.
