UNSTEADY FLOW PAST A VERTICAL PLATE IN A ROTATING FLUID WITH THERMAL RADIATION

Theoretical study of thermal radiation effects on unsteady flow past a moving vertical plate in arotating fluid with variable temperature and uniform mass diffusion is considered. An exact solution is obtained for the axial and transverse components of the velocity by defining a complex velocity. The effects of velocity, temperature and concentration for different parameters like radiation parameter, rotation parameter, Schmidt number, thermal Grashof number, mass Grashof number, Prandtl number and time on the plate are discussed.
