R. Lakshmi, K. Jayarami Reddy, K. Rama Krishna and G. V. Ramana Reddy

An analysis is performed to study numerical solution of MHD flow over a vertical porous plate with heat and mass transfer. The c oupled nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow, heat and mass transfer have been reduced to a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation. The reduced equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta fourth-order integration scheme together with shooting method. The effect of various physical parameters on the velocity, temperature, and concentration fields has been studied.
