With viscous dissipation and Joule heating taken into account, solution of the energy equation is obtained for unsteady hydromagnetic thermal boundary layer flow past a porous wall (e.g., star surface) in the presence of a transverse magnetic field, under the condition of zero heat transfer between the fluid and the boundary - the so-called 'plate thermometer problem' in MHD. Solution of the problem, in the form of power series, is obtained under certain valid simplifying assumptions, when (1) the wall is subjected to a normal velocity of suction/injection which is proportional to t to the minus one-half, and (2) the wall has a velocity given by alpha times t to the nth power. The variation of temperature is shown graphically and is followed by a quantitative discussion which shows the importance of retaining the Joule heating term in the energy equation.
