Abstract An investigation is carried out to analyze the unsteady MHD free convection, heat and mass transfer flow of a Newtonian fluid past an infinite
vertical porous plate with homogeneous chemical reaction and heat absorption/generation. A uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the
plate. The non-dimensional governing equations are solved numerically by using finite difference method. The effects of various parameters
governing the flow on velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are studied through graphs. It is
noticed that velocity decreases with an increase in Magnetic field while it increases with More >
