    This study analyses the Soret, Hall and ion slip effects on a free convective flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible and viscous fluid near the vertical oscillatory infinite plate in a rotating system. A set of dimensionless governing equations of the model is obtained. As the equations are linear, an exact solution can be obtained by using Laplace transform method. The influence of various parameters on the concentration, temperature, velocity, Sherwood number and Nusselt number are discussed with the help of graphs. The numerical values of skin-friction are shown in tables. Applications of the study arise in field like planetary and solar plasma fluid dynamical systems, magnetic field controlled materials processing systems, rotating MHD induction machine energy generators etc

    In the present paper, rotation and radiation effects on unsteady MHD flow passed an inclined plate with variable wall temperature and mass diffusion in the presence of Hall current has been studied. The fluid considered is viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting. Earlier, we have studied unsteady MHD flow past an impulsively started inclined plate with variable temperature and mass diffusion. In that study we had analyzed the effect of Hall current (2016). We obtained the results which were in agreement with the desired flow phenomenon. To study further, we are changing the model by considering radiation and rotation effect on fluid. The plate temperature and the concentration level near the plate increase linearly with time. The model contains equations of motion, diffusion equation and equation of energy. The governing system of partial differential equations is transformed to dimensionless equations by using non-dimensional variables. To analyze the solution of the model, desirable sets of the values of the parameters have been considered. The governing equations involved in the flow model are solved by the Laplace-transform technique. The results obtained have been analyzed with the help of graphs drawn for different parameters. The numerical values obtained for the drag at boundary and Nusselt number have been tabulated. We found that the values obtained for velocity, concentration and temperature are in concurrence with the actual flow of the fluid. The results of the study may find applications in the field related to the solar physics dealing with the solar cycle, the sunspot development, the structure of rotating magnetic stars etc

    The unsteady MHD convective flow of an electrically conducting fluid embedded in a porous medium along moving infinite vertical plate with ramped wall temperature and radiation in a rotating system is investigated here. The fluid taken is incompressible and viscous. The governing PDE’s of the model are solved by using integral transform method. The analytical solutions for the velocity, concentration and temperature are obtained. The expressions for skin friction, rate of mass transfer and heat transfer near the plate are obtained. The effects of various parameters like porosity of the medium, magnetic field, Soret number, thermal radiation, rotation, radiation and Hall current on the flow field are discussed. It is observed that velocity increases with the increase in the porosity parameter K. It reveals that a porous medium having large permeability supports the movement of the fluid in the system. Also, it is noticed that Hall parameter reduces the resistive effect of the applied magnetic field. Such a study assumes importance because both rotation and Hall current induce secondary flow in the flow-field. The results of the research may be useful in many industrial applications

    (R1501) Rotational and Hall Current Effects on a Free Convection MHD Flow with Radiation and Inclined Magnetic Field

    Get PDF
    Rotational and Hall current effects on a free convection MHD flow with Radiation and inclined magnetic field are studied here. Electrically conducting, viscous, and incompressible fluid is taken. The flow is modelled with the help of partial differential equations. The analytical solutions for the velocity, concentration, and temperature are solved by the Laplace integral transform method. The outcomes acquired have been examined with the help of graphs drawn for different parameters like Hartmann number, Hall current parameter, inclination of magnetic field, angular velocity and radiation parameter, etc. The variation of the Nusselt number has been shown graphically. It is observed that Hall current parameter and inclination of magnetic field reduces the resistive effect of the applied external magnetic field. Such a study assumes importance because both rotation and Hall current induce secondary flow in the flow-field. The conclusion of the study may be useful in the field of solar physics, rotating magnetic stars, rotating MHD induction machine energy generator and many industrial applications

    STUDY OF HALL AND SORET EFFECT ON MHD FLOW WITH A RAMPED PLATE TEMPERATURE OF AN EXPONENTIALLY ACCELERATED VERTICAL PLATE EMBEDDED IN A POROUS MEDIUM

    Get PDF
    The present literature deals with the study of MHD flow of an incompressible viscous electrically conducting fluid along an exponentially accelerated infinite vertical plate in a rotating system. The effects of thermodiffusion, thermal radiation and Hall current, are analysed with ramped and isothermal plate conditions.  The non-dimensional coupled partial differential equations of the model are solved analytically by using Laplace Transform method with the help of Heaviside step function; thus the expression for velocity field, temperature field, concentration field, skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are obtained. The influence of physical parameters such as m (Hall parameter), Sr (Soret number), K (Darcy permeability), λ (exponential parameter), Ω (rotation parameter) and R (radiation parameter) on these fields are discussed in detail through graphs

    Evaluation of 360 lines of coriander (Coriandrum sativum) at Jobner (Rajasthan) indicatedhigh variability for seed yield (22.82%), umbels plant-1 (28.65%) and seeds umbel-1 (21.63%)and low variability for days to 50% flowering (12.39%) and umbellets umbel-1 (13.30%). Highbroad sense heritability (91.94%) and genetic advance (56.55%) were obtained for umbelsplant-1 and seeds umbel-1. Correlation and path coefficient analysis indicated that umbelsplant-1 and branches plant-1 were the most important traits as they exerted positive directeffect on seed yield. &nbsp

    Full potential LAPW calculation of electron momentum density and related properties of Li

    Electron momentum density and Compton profiles in Lithium along ,, , and directions are calculated using Full-Potential Linear Augmented Plane Wave basis within generalized gradient approximation. The profiles have been corrected for correlations with Lam-Platzman formulation using self-consistent charge density. The first and second derivatives of Compton profiles are studied to investigate the Fermi surface breaks. Decent agreement is observed between recent experimental and our calculated values. Our values for the derivatives are found to be in better agreement with experiments than earlier theoretical results. Two-photon momentum density and one- and two-dimensional angular correlation of positron annihilation radiation are also calculated within the same formalism and including the electron-positron enhancement factor.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures TO appear in Physical Review
