HALL EFFECTS ON HYDROMAGNETIC CONVECTIVE FLOW IN A ROTATING FLUID THROUGH POROUS MEDIUM

Abstract An analysis of the effects of Hall current on the combined thermal and mass diffusion through a porous medium bounded by a vertical plate is theoretically investigated when a strong magnetic field is imposed in a plane which makes an angle a with the normal to the plate. Analytical expressions for the velocity and temperature field in the boundary layer are derived. The effects of Hall current on the flow are studied for various values of a.
