We consider the case of an electrically conducting fluid squeezed between two permeable, parallel discs placed within a magnetic field. Each disc is maintained at a distinct isothermal temperature and is allowed to rotate independently. The upper disc is then set in motion towards the lower one. Using a similarity solution, analytical and numerical solutions are derived from which the effects of various flow parameters on the temperature and heat transfer profiles are studied. The Hartmann number has an effect on the temperature profiles when the discs are allowed to rotate in the same direction, but the effects are negligible during rotation in the opposite direction. The Prandtl number also affects the temperature and heat transfer profiles for small values of the Squeeze Reynolds number. The effect of permeability on the heat transfer profile varies depending on the speed of rotation of the discs relative to each other.B. Bhatt and R. Mohai
