Abstract: | A new approach on MHD natural convection boundary layer flow from a finite flat plate of arbitrary inclination in a rotating
environment, is presented. This problem plays a significant role on boundary layer flow control. It is shown that taking into
account the pressure rise region at the leading edge of the plate leads to avoid separation and the back flow is reduced by
the strong magnetic field. It is also shown that the frictional drag at the leading edge of the plate is reduced when the
inclination angle α=π/4. In the case of isothermal flat plate, the bulk temperature becomes identical for any value of Gr (Grashof number) when the value of M
2 (Hartmann number) and K
2 (rotation parameter) are kept fixed. |
