Consequence of heat transfer on free convection flow of casson fluid with hall effect

Abstract

Effect of heat transfer on free convection flow of Casson fluid over a vertical plate with Hall effect has been studied. A similarity analysis method was used to transform the system of partial differential equations describing the problem into an ordinary differential equations, Analytical solutions are obtained by solving the ODE to analyze the velocity and temperature fields. Variations of interesting parameters on the velocity, heat transfer and skin friction are observed by plotting graphs. Further, it was concluded that the Casson fluid parameter and hall parameter has an retarding influence on velocity profile and also in the skin friction.
