Abstract:An analysis has been carried out to study the combined effects of radiation absorption and chemical reaction on an incompressible, electrically conducting and radiating flow of a Rivlin-Ericksen fluid along a semi-infinite vertical permeable moving plate in the presence of a transverse applied magnetic field. It is assumed that the suction velocity, the temperature and the concentration at the wall are exponentially varying with time. ; The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are solved analytically using two-term harmonic and non-harmonic functions. A comparison is made with the available results in the literature for a special case and our results are in very good agreement with the known results. A parametric study of the physical parameters is made and results are presented through graphs and tables. ; The results indicate that the fluid velocity and temperature could be controlled by varying the radiation absorption.
