| Abstract | Free convective flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium between two vertical parallel plates which are heated or cooled uniformly, under a pressure gradient in presence of uniform transverse magnetic field has been studied. The governing equations are solved to obtain approximate analytical solutions for velocity field and temperature distribution for small values of Rayleigh number, using regular perturbation technique. Two physical situations, namely, steady heating of ascending cold fluid (SHACF) and steady cooling of ascending hot fluid (SCAHF) have been investigated. The effect of various parameters on velocity field, temperature distribution, mass flow rate ratio, friction factor ratio and heat transfer rate has been discussed. |
