摘要
The purpose of this work is to study the effect of transverse sinusoidal suction velocity on the flow and mass transfer on free convective oscillatory viscous and optically thin grey fluid over a porous vertical plate in the presence of radiation. The flow becomes three-dimensional due to the variation of suction velocity in the transverse direction. Analytical expressions for velocity and temperature fields are obtained using the perturbation technique. The governing equations has been transformed to ordinary differential equations. Numerical solutions are obtained for different values of radiation parameter, Grashof number and Schmidt number. It is found that non-dimensional velocity decreases with increase of radiation parameter, increases with increase of Grashof number, decreases with increase of Schmidt number and non-dimensional temperature decreases with the increase of radiation parameter.
