Abstract
ABSTRACT
This research explores impact of radiation on boundary layer flow around a porous plate undergoing vertical motion in an incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid. A system of complex differential equations is generated by reducing governing nonlinear equations using similarity transformation techniques. Successive linearization is applied to attain results for coupled mass and heat transfer equations under relevant boundary conditions. Effects of several factors, including radiation intensity, magnetic field strength, and porosity, on temperature, velocity, concentration boundary layers, and streamlines are shown graphically. Quantitative assessments of heat transmission, mass transfer rates, and skin friction are examined. The findings show strong agreement with earlier research, supporting the approach's validity and providing information on how radiative and MHD factors interact to affect boundary layer behavior.
