Abstract

In the present paper , an analysis is carried out the chemical reaction effects on an unsteady magneto hydrodynamics (MHD) free convection fluid flow past a semi-infinite vertical plate embedded in a porous medium with heat absorption was formulated. The non dimensional governing equations are formed with the help of suitable dimensionless governing parameter. The resultant coupled non dimensional governing equations are solved by a finite element method. The effect of important physical parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration are shown graphically and also discussed the skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are shown in tables.
