Abstract

Effects of rotation and chemical reaction on unsteady MHD flow past an impulsively started inclined plate with variable wall temperature and mass diffusion in the presence of Hall current is studied here. Earlier we [7] have studied radiation effect on unsteady MHD flow through porous medium past an oscillating inclined plate with variable temperature and mass diffusion in the presence of Hall current. We obtained the results which were in agreement with the desired flow phenomenon. To study further, we are changing the model by considering rotation and chemical reaction. The governing equations involved in the flow model are solved by the Laplace-transform technique. The results obtained have been analyzed with the help of graphs drawn for different parameters. The numerical values obtained for the drag at boundary and Sherwood number have been tabulated. Here too, the results are found to be in agreement with the actual flow.
