- Abstract
The present study deals with thermal radiation effect on two dimensional magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) natural convection boundary layer flow of viscous fluid surrounded by porous vertical surface with heat source, chemical reaction and radiation effect. The governing partial differential equations have been converted into a set of ordinary differential equations using non dimensional quantities. Perturbation technique has been employed to solve the system of partial differential equations. Most of the studies so far have presented the numerical and semi analytical solution for flow velocity and temperature in the form of a series solution. The effects of various parameters on flow variables are illustrated graphically, and the physical aspects of the problem are discussed. It has been observed that the velocity increase with increasement in permeability and radiation parameters and reverse trend has been found with respect to magnetic parameter.
