Abstract

The heat and mass transfer of electrically conducting fluid through porous media over an accelerating surface subject both to power law surface temperature and power law heat flux variations with a temperature-dependent heat source in the presence of a transverse uniform magnetic field is studied. A series solution to the energy and species concentration equation in terms of Kummer’s function is studied. The effect of Prandtl number and Schmidt number is studied with the help of graphs.
