Abstract

In the present paper, the effect of equilibrium temperature gradient and magnetic field on the rate of heat transfer, velocity and temperature has been studied. Numerical calculations for the rate of heat transfer, velocity and temperature are obtained and shown graphically. The highly porous medium which is bounded by an infinite vertical non-conducting plane surface has been considered and two dimensional free convective MHD flow of a stratified viscous fluid has discussed.
