Abstract

Porous-permeable structures with magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow have a lot of applications in various disciplines of engineering. Transport of ferro-fluid in magnetic field has attained more focus in recent years. In this work, an analysis is accomplished to investigate the MHD transport of in-compressible viscid ferro-fluid (electrically conductive) amid two movable porous-permeable plates (PPP). Here asymptotic method is then selected to solve the model. In this study, the effects of diverse considerable parameters and constraints like surface permeability, Reynold's factor, and Hartmann's factor are elaborated in details.

Keywords: Ferro-fluid; MHD; Non-stationary; Porous-permeable plates.
