Scientific paper

An analysis of a two-dimensional steady-free convection and mass transfer flow of an incompressible, viscous, and electrically conductive non-Newtonian fluid through a porous medium bounded by a vertical infinite limiting surface (plane wall) has been presented in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. Approximate solutions to the coupled nonlinear equations governing the flow are derived and expression for the velocity, temperature, concentration, the rate of heat transfer, and the skin-friction are derived. Effects of Gr (Grashof number), Gm (modified Grashof number), M* (non-Newtonian parameter), N (magnetic parameter), and permeability K of the porous medium on the velocity, the skin-friction and the rate of heat transfer are discussed when the surface is subjected to a constant suction velocity.
