MHD free convection from an infinite vertical plate in a rotating fluid with Hall and ionslip currents

An explicit finite-difference method is employed to study the MHD free convection fluid flow past an impulsive started vertical infinite plate when a strong magnetic field of uniform strength is applied transversely to the direction of flow. The fluid and the plate are in a state of rigid rotation w...

Description
Summary:An explicit finite-difference method is employed to study the MHD free convection fluid flow past an impulsive started vertical infinite plate when a strong magnetic field of uniform strength is applied transversely to the direction of flow. The fluid and the plate are in a state of rigid rotation with a uniform angular velocity Ω about the z +-axis taken normal to the plate. The velocity and temperature profiles are shown on graphs and results are discussed in terms of the Hall parameter β e, the ionslip parameter β e, and the time t.
