In this work the significance of Cross Diffusion effect on unsteady MHD peristaltic flow in a porous medium with heat and mass transfer is investigated. The governing partial differentialequations are transformed into dimensionless equations by using dimensionless quantities. Stream function, velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are obtained. The results are discussed for various emerging parameters encountered in the problem under investigation. The importance of main parameters on the present study is explained graphically

In this paper an analysis has been performed to study the effects of Hall current and radiation of MHD free convective heat and mass transfer flow of a radiating fluid past an accelerated inclined porous plate with hall current in presence of thermal diffusion and heat source. The solutions for velocity, temperature and concentration distributions are obtained by using Laplace transform technique. The expressions for skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also derived. The variations in fluid velocity, temperature and species concentration are shown graphically, whereas numerical values of skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in tabular form for various values of physical parameters.

In this paper, the combined effects of magnetic field, buoyancy forces, nth order chemical reaction, heat source, viscous dissipation, Joule heating and variable viscosity on mixed convection Blasius flow of a conducting fluid over a convectively heated permeable plate embedded in a porous medium is investigated. The fluid properties are assumed to be constant except for the density variation with the temperature and reacting chemical species concentration. The nonlinear governing differential equations were obtained and solved numerically using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method with shooting technique. The dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are shown graphically. The effects of pertinent parameters on the skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are examined. It is found that skin friction decreases while Nusselt number and Sherwood number increase with a decrease in the fluid viscosity in the presence of magnetic field.

An exact analysis of heat and mass transfer past an oscillating vertical plate with Newtonian heating is presented. Equations are modelled and solved for velocity, temperature, and concentration using Laplace transforms. The obtained solutions satisfy governing equations and conditions. Expressions of skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are obtained and presented in tabular forms. The results show that increasing the Newtonian heating parameter leads to increase velocity and temperature distributions whereas skin friction decreases and rate of heat transfer increases.

In this work, a similarity solution of the flow, heat and mass transfer of a nanofluid over a porous plate in a Darcy-Forchheimer flow is explored. The nanofluid model includes Brownian motion and Thermophoresis diffusion effects. The governing transport equations are made dimensionless using similarity transformation technique which reduce them into ordinary differential equations with the associated boundary conditions. The equations are then solved numerically using the classical fourth order Runge-Kutta method and the results are benched marked with available results in literature and are found to be in good agreement. The results for the flow velocity, the shear stress, the temperature distribution, the nanoparticle volume concentration, the skin friction coefficient, the reduced Nusselt number, and the reduced Sherwood number, are presented graphically illustrating the effects of permeability, inertia, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, Lewis number and Prandtl number on the flow. Our analysis shows, among others, that the Nusselt number is a decreasing function, while the Sherwood number is an increasing function of the thermophoretic number
