Abstract: | This paper generalizes the analysis of four magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow problems of an Oldroyd-B fluid discussed by Asghar
et al. Int. J. Non-linear Mech. 40, 589–601 (2005)] into three directions: (i) to discuss the problems in a porous medium using modified Darcy’s law (ii) to
see the influence of Hall current (iii) to determine the effect of rheological parameter of Burgers’ fluid. Analytical solutions
of velocity distribution valid at large and small times are given in each problem. Comparison has been provided for Oldroyd-B
and Burgers’ fluids through graphs. The physical interpretation is also included. |
