Abstract

The problem of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of a conducting, incompressible third-grade fluid due to non-coaxial rotations of a porous disk and a fluid at infinity in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field is considered. An exact analysis is carried out to model the governing non-linear partial differential equation. A numerical solution of the third-order non-linear partial differential equation has been obtained. Several graphs and tables have been drawn to show the influence of porosity, magnetic parameter N, material parameters α and β on the velocity distribution.
