Of concern in this paper is an investigation of the combined effects of
thermal radiation and Hall current on momentum, heat and mass transfer in
laminar boundary-layer flow over an inclined permeable stretching sheet with
variable viscosity. The sheet is linearly stretched in the presence of an
external magnetic field and the fluid motion is subjected to a uniform porous
medium. The effect of internal heat generation/absorption is also taken into
account. The fluid viscosity is assumed to vary as an inverse linear function
of temperature. The boundary-layer equations that governing the flow problem
have reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations with a
suitable similarity transformation. Then the transformed equations are solved
numerically by employing a finite difference scheme. Thus the results
obtained are presented graphically for the various parameters of interest.
