Hydromagnetic convection flow through a porous medium in axially varying pipe

The hydromagnetic mixed convection flow through a porous medium in a pipe of varying radius in a uniform axial magnetic field is analyzed. The pipe wall is maintained at a prescribed nonuniform temperature. The governing equations are solved analytically to obtain the velocity, temperature, and indu...

Zusammenfassung:The hydromagnetic mixed convection flow through a porous medium in a pipe of varying radius in a uniform axial magnetic field is analyzed. The pipe wall is maintained at a prescribed nonuniform temperature. The governing equations are solved analytically to obtain the velocity, temperature, and induced magnetic field. Their behaviors are evaluated for different variations in the governing parameters.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
