MHD free convection flow over an inclined plate that applies arbitrary shear stress to the fluid

Abstract

An exact analysis of heat transfer past an infinite inclined plate that applies arbitrary shear stress to the fluid with Newtonian heating is presented, The fluid is considered electrically conducting and passing through a porous medium, The influence of thermal radiation in the enerh'Y equations is also considered, General solutions of the problem are obtained in closed form using the Laplace transform technique, They satisfy the governing equations, initial and boundary conditions and can set up a huge number of exact solutions correlatives to various fluid motions, The effects of various parameters on velocity and temperature profiles are shown graphically and discussed in details.
